Using wkhtmltopdf 0.12.3 with an image in the header, the top line of the body text is often cut off.

I have tried various fixes I found around the interwebz with no luck. Please let me know if this is possible.

jw@logopolis:/projects/test-wk $ ~/downloads/wkhtmltox/bin/wkhtmltopdf -V
wkhtmltopdf 0.12.3 (with patched qt)

jw@logopolis:/projects/test-wk $ ~/downloads/wkhtmltox/bin/wkhtmltopdf -T 25mm -B 30mm -L 10mm -R 10mm --header-html /projects/genesis/inventory/header.html --user-style-sheet style.css /projects/test-wk/sample.html test.pdf

same problem, though different margins, with this:

Just playing around, I discovered that if I do this:

<img ... style="float: left;" />

the problem goes away. Still, it would be nice to know if there were a non-total-hack way to do this. Also, if set the width to 100%, it breaks again... so... not a great workaround.

Also fails when the content is a table.
