Printable Versions

Can anyone tell me how I set up printable versions of web
pages. I currently update several documents several times
a day and do not want to maintain two copies of each
document and then add in a link to the printable version.

Have you considered creating your documents as PDF files. then all you have
to do is import the PDFs into your web and create links to them.

Hi Cindy,
you can make a seperate stylesheet for print, eg you'd probably want to
change to black text white background and block some parts of the page
(navbars etc) from printing -
<style type="text/css" media="print">
body{
background-color:white;
color:black;
}
..noPrint{
display:none !important;
}
</style>
<p class="noPrint">this paragraph won't print</p>

Or create your printable content only as a printable page, and then add it as an include page in your richer full page (w/ a link to
the printable content as say a Popup) - only 1 page to maintain

Hi,
something like this
<style type="text/css" media="print">
..noPrint{display:none !important;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table><tr><td>this will print</td><td class="noPrint">this won't
print</td></tr></table>

Create your plain printable page as a html page
Then in your normal page (w/ all content / layout ) just include the printable page using Insert Web Component Include Page and add
a link to the printable html page (or set it to open the printable page a popup window)
