Incorrect printing of grace notes

I have a problem when printing a composition with 4 staffs layerd 2 by 2 when they contain grace notes at end of the staffs.  The upeer 2 staffs are printed correctly, but the lower 2 staffs are cut off at the end, allthough they are displayed correctly on the screen as you can see on the attached example.
Can anybody help me?

G'day Gilbert,
actually, only the top staff appears to display correctly, you'll notice the E is missing from the second staff...

To fix this try placing a headless, muted whole note after the grace notes in the last bar of each staff.  To print correctly, the grace notes need a real note to "attach" to.
I plays 'Bones, crumpets, coronets, floosgals, youfonymums 'n tubies.

Thank you Lawrie for your quick reply: the grace notes are shown now on the printout and the staffs are correctly extended to the right margin.
Problem solved and thank you again!
