Multiline Textbox Cause Page Overflows when Printing or doesn't print all lines

1) Maybe a DoEvents and an explicit Document.Repaginate. Check the
table properties for controlling layout as well.
2) Some sort of pre-process before printing to ensure the ranges are
fully displayed in their container.
