    Print feature

    Many times I see an article or an item here on the board I wish to keep. I have a huge folder and several clip binders loaded with situation or task specific help articles.

    Many websites have a PRINT button which selected renders the page /document in plain text for printing. Some publish them in PDFs.
    Sure would be nice if this forum did the same. [HINT]

    Under Thread Tools (in the blue bar running across the top of the text box on each thread), we have a "Show Printable Version" option, but it doesn't seem to be working properly at the moment, or perhaps I'm not using it properly.

    Can any of the rest of you test it, please?

    Thanks.

    Show Printable Version is working fine here.

    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    Thanks for checking that. It's working for me now as well.

    It would be nice to have a print only stylesheet (media="print" as opposed to media="screen") and then it would just be used when printing the page.

    My new blog. It's probably not as good as I think it is.
