No problem for me. Arch Linux 64-bit Kate 16.04.2 KDE Frameworks 5.23.0 Qt 5.7 xcb wm
I tested it again with some different fonts: DejaVu Sans Mono - Book => All lines cut off (_ missing) Latin Modern Mono => No cut off Liberation Mono - Regular => Only 2. line cut off Noto Mono - Regular => Only 2. line cut off Oxygen Mono - Regular => Every 2. line cut off Source Code Pro - Regular => Only 2. line cut off Ubuntu Mono - Regular => Only 2. line cut off The default font for neon users is: Oxygen Mono. Other neon users (freenode.net #kde-neon) can reproduce this bug.

I just noticed that if you copy&paste the text above it will get inserted as a single line. Please manually split this line into multiple lines. Using the auto line break feature (by resizing the window) does not yield the same result. System: KDE neon user edition Kate 16.04.02 KDE Frameworks 5.24.0 Qt 5.7.0 xcb

Heh, actually I am acutely aware of this style issue in KDE Bugzilla :) I go around it by hitting Ctrl-Shift-i in my Firefox, clicking on the comment div element and then forcefully changing it to a pre element by double clicking on the "div" text in the markup editor. It should be fixed in the Bugzilla theme, of course..
For the record: I can reproduce this with Arch Linux and Qt 5.7 too, as soon as I switch to the Oxygen Mono font.
I just read that "Hack" is the new default monospace font for kde[1]: Hack - Regular => Only the 2. line is cut off [1]: http://jriddell.org/2016/08/01/your-new-monospace-font-hack/
