unclear on the concept, or major report printing bugs?

create a mainstack "main"
add a field "news" with lot of text in it to card 1 of "main"
create a substack "report"
add a report object to card 1 of "report"
in the report object properties select field "news" of stack "main",
then click Apply
now report object magically turns into a field? (OK- I assume that's
supposed to happen)
now resize the report object height to fit it's content (several pages
tall)
resize stack "report" to fit the report object (several pages tall)
open Report Builder on stack "report" and use default settings
click Print Report

what is output is:
1 full page, with a the bottom line of text chopped in half. margins OK
on page 1.
the second page is 75% empty space, with some text at the bottom
running off the page.
it should have been 4 or 5 pages.
