Printing Messages from Forum

[llynisa]

Whenever I try to print off the messages on a topic, I get that completely useless (as far as printing off messages is concerned) Intel banner and links down the left-hand side printed in its full glory, but the messages themselves all get trunctated on the right.

Everything further right than the "Post" part of "Post New" gets deleted.

Is there anything I can do from my end? - I have tried what I can without avail. If not, could you get the Intel Banner moved to the right-hand side?

You might tell your PR colleagues that irritating users does not endear them to the brand.

Yours in frustration

I've already mentioned this to our forum people with a suggestion as to how they can deal with it. One thing you can do is File..Print Setup (assuming MSIE) and change the left and right margins to a tenth of an inch. See if that helps.

Steve,
Many thanks - I had not changed the margins because they were already set to 7.5mm / 0.3in, and clearly a gain of 10mm / 0.4in was not going to be enough. But changing to 2.5mm / 0.1in for some reason gives me the extra inch needed, and I am gruntled once more.

I am also pleased that you have told your forum people what they can do with their banner.

Regards

Alan

The solution I have proposed is to specify an alternate CSS style sheet for printing that excludes the banners. You can see this in action in the CVF newsletter pages.
