PDF renderer crashs if an element is rendered outside the page border using css positioning

Seems like the renderer does not really like elements outside their borders ;-)

 

(you can use fixed or absolute positioning)

 

 

This simple code results in an internal server error:

 



<apex:page showHeader="false" renderAs="pdf" >

  <div style="position: relative; top: -1cm;">
  CRASHED
  </div>
</apex:page>


 

While this one works without problems: 



<apex:page showHeader="false" renderAs="pdf" >

<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>

  <div style="position: relative; top: -1cm;">
  NO CRASH </div>
</apex:page>
