Picture Document and Print preview - look where the line is and where it is printed

Hello

I have a problem when I draw a line and pint it using mail merge document. 

As long as i print it like a normal document everything fits nice.

But when I use mailmerge and print it you can also see in the print preview that the line is is moved somewhere else. The line is fixed to the page header/left border. 

I enclosed a screenshot documet/and print preview.

Hi Nils,

Indeed I expect that this has to do with the anchoring in the header.
Maybe because of the change in functionality, adding the different header footer first page/other pages, per page style?
1- any idea how this worked before?
2- of course OK if not anchored in header?
3- test document available ;) ?

Regards,
Cor

For me the line is fine when printing via mail merge.
Closing as WFM. If original reporter objects, they can change to UNCONFIRMED.
