Printing

[alchemy]

I am having trouble printing the SotT under the new format, and for the life of me can't figure out what I am doing wrong. Been printing the daily news for years, as the eyes are just getting too tired to look at a screen for hours on end.
What happens now is that the pages scroll off the end of the page -- i.e., if you do a Print Preview it will show only 1 page, but the text falls off the bottom of that 1 page into infinity (or rather, the end of all the articles).
Anyway, using Firefox 1.0.7; checked all the print parameters (normal); tested my settings against other sites (no issues) and can't replicate the problem anywhere else of SotT.
Can you help!?

Another idea --- an automatic "expand ALL articles" button at the top of each page, which would be extraordinarily handy for those of us who print it all off to read in front of the fire...

Cheers,

John

Printing is an issue with the new format. I too have found that only the first page will print - subsequent text just disappears. Even though there is defiantly more text, the printer even prints "page 1 of 1".

I would like to forward the idea for a "print view" link for each article that will link to a page that just has the text, no sidebars etc for those of us that like to print and distribute articles to our colleagues.

Maybe you could copy the text and pictures you want to print into a wordprocessor? Most of them can keep the formating and such.
