I stumbled across a simple way to format printer friendly views of the sites pages. It's incorporated into the default theme only at the moment.

Try it out and let me know if there are any issues.

Thanks,
Jim

Hi Jim

The print preview looks great - I don't know if it's new, because i've never tried to print an Armorama page... but anything which adds to the Big-A's already superb user-friendliness has to be exciting! - even in the early hours!...

Cheers

I happen to have access to several printers, one advantage for working at a printer company. Color ink, color laser, black and white laser, etc. I tried it on several and it looks good. This thread, up to my post, took up six pages. Formating and color are both good. I've never tried printing directly from Armorama, I always just cut and pasted what I need into Word. This looks like a nice addition.


Good work as always Jim.
