What OS/platform are you using? Do you compile mono yourself or use
official packages? Your Windows screenshot, was it taken using Mono for
Windows or MS .NET?
Mono printing seems to be broken for me since at least 1.9.
I get the same results as you (text missing) since Fedora 9 + Mono 1.9.
The problem is still present in Fedora 10 + Mono 2.0.1. Also present in
SVN. BTW, I'm running 64-bit Linux.
I filed bug #449482 and attached your screenshot.

Ernesto
