div margins cause bad positioning for vertical-align: bottom in page margin boxes

[castedo]

Here is a simplified HTML example for what I believe if a bug: test.html.txt and the PDF I get with WeasyPrint 58.1: test.pdf

What I expected is for the pink rectangles in the upper page margin to be positioned similar to the pink rectangles in the lower page margin. In other words, I was expecting the pink rectangles to stay within the blue rectangles.

It seems like the inner div margin handling is correct when the page margin box is vertical-align: top (as seen in the lower page margin) but incorrect when vertical-align:bottom (as seen in the upper page margin).

The height + top + bottom margins of the pink inner divs sum to exactly to the height of the blue page margin boxes. So I see no reason for the pink inner divs to overflow.

Smells like a calculation bug.

Surprisingly, Prince gives the same result as WeasyPrint here (except from the widths, because of #58, but that’s another story). So… I’m not sure that it’s a bug. I have to check more precisely the different specifications, and hope to find something on this particular example.

Well, Prince and WeasyPrint have the same rendering. AntennaHouse, BFO and Typeset give the "right" rendering. I think that it’s a bug…

The problem seems to be easy to solve, but it’s not: it’s caused by collapsing margins between the running element box and its anonymous wrapper. Fun!

Good to know, thank for looking into!

I was wondering how printstrap should handle this issue.

We should fix it in WeasyPrint!
