This bug is marked as new, but it really is a very old one, and today it started to annoy me enough to create a bug report. Good to know I'm not alone. Our use case is to create Bill of Materials (BOM) in Calc. The nice thing is that Calc can show you a comparison with older versions, a really useful feature for version control. Unfortunately when word wrap is turned on the on screen word wrap is calculated different from print/pdf. But as the row height is not automatically adjusted, the wrapped text in the pdf is printed over other text, making it unreadable. Not a good thing for a BOM, as that can lead to very expensive errors. I am adding a screenshot with editing and print preview side by side.

Oops, sorry changed back the earliest version (3.5.7.2). I wanted to mention that this is still an issue 6.0.3.2.

I just retested this with 7.1.5.2 and this is still broken, though in a different way. It really is not that hard to reproduce, just open the Exaple :-) provided by matti in 2017. I'll upload a new screenshot right after this. As you can see cell A3 overflows into A4 and A4 overflows into A5.

Still can repro Version: 7.5.5.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 50(Build:2) CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 6.1; UI render: default; VCL: qt6 (qfont+xcb) Locale: en-GB (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US 7.5.5-1 Calc: threaded
Reproduced in OOo 3.3 -> inherited. Still reproduced in recent trunk build: Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 6d71c21890c908225945f0fc3566255ed150f660 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
Please note bug 57519 and associated conversation in bug 118729: it was decided not to change the following behaviour: reducing a column size would need to increase the row height in order to accommodate wrapped text, but it does not. Regardless, what is described here is obviously a bug that needs some kind of resolution.
