I have a small problem with the (excellent) print-module: Inside of some lines text changes its direction and lies above previous text. This problem occurs whenever a line is too long to be displayed, normally only the last word "is reversed". A pdf can be supplied if the need should arise, at this point no page with this problem is available online.
The problem occurs with all tested non-english languages. I'm using dompdf-0.5.1 (problem could very well be related to dompdf) with Drupal 6-10 and print-6.x-1.4.

My print_pdf.tpl.php contains some unrelated extra information (page-number for a start) - the same problem occurs with the standard print.tpl.pdf. The stylesheets are unrelated to the problem (tested with multiple different stylesheets and w/o custom stylesheets).

I am pretty sure (99.9%) that this problem is caused by dompdf. Try using TCPDF and see if the problem still persists.

Quite possible - still TCPDF gives me even stranger results (one line per page, w/o custom stylesheets, but not as thoroughfully tested). I will have a closer look at dompdf.

Indeed, TCPDF doesn't support stylesheets, althought the one line per page is unexpected..

No further info in two weeks. Closing the issue.
