381382Overflow in Print and Other Static Media</h3>

383- <p class="issue">
384- This specification should define useful behavior
385- for all values of 'overflow'
386- in static media (such as print).
387- Current implementation behavior is quite poor and
388- produces unexpected results when authors have not considered
389- what will happen when
390- the content they produce for interactive media
391- is printed.
384+ <p class="advisement">
385+ Since scrolling is not possible in static media
386+ (such as print)
387+ authors should be careful to make content accessible in such media,
388+ for example by using ''@media print, (update: none) { … }''
389+ to adjust layout such that all relevant content
390+ is simultaneously visible.
391+
392+ On <a>scroll containers</a> in <a>static media</a>
393+ with an 'overflow' value of ''overflow/auto'' or ''overflow/scroll''
394+ (but not ''overflow/hidden'' )
395+ UAs may display an indication of any scrollable overflow,
396+ such as by displaying scrollbars
397+ or an ellipsis.
398+
399+ Note: Not all <a>paged media</a> is <a lt="static media">static</a> ;
400+ for example, e-book readers page content,
401+ but are <a lt="interactive media">interactive</a> .
