If so, do I call to get printed certificates? And if not, why not, given that technically GPUs should cover the entire routing?
They don't apply LH requires paper GPU's, one per flight, so even if they were both LH sectors, and if you had been upgraded with a paper GPU, it wouldn't be valid for the second sector from FRA->SOF. Having a GPU cover multiple sectors is a nice benefit UA gives.
