[Qgis-user] Label display at disappearing at different resolution

I'm making an A3 size map of my town where every street needs to be
labelled. And I need to output to a vector PDF.

I have 'Show all labels for this layer (including colliding labels)' ticked
I do not have 'Discourage labels from covering features' ticked.

I have a rule for font size that says if a street is shorter than 100m then
use a smaller font size. This helped to get a lot of smaller labels on the
map, but does not get everything.

When I zoom in on my canvas, I can see the labels, but when I zoom back to
see the whole map, some of the labels disappear. They don't all appear on
the PDF either - but the ones that do not appear aren't always the same as
the ones that don't show on my canvas.

Can someone suggest something that I can do (aside from telling the client
that their request is unrealistic?)
