Question

Anyone help?

IE5.5 has a print preview, which is proving useful for a web-page that is appearing differently when printed from the same browser from different machines...

...Seems all the browsers have slightly different margin set-ups.

Can someone tell me what the default print margin is in millimetres? (Portrait, left and right margins)

Do other applications affect the set-up?



Cheers,
Squizz.

Mine is currently set at 7.5mm for each margin - I haven't touched 'em so I guess that's default.

Dunno about whether other apps would change this, as it doesn't look like the standard printer setup page... I would guess MS wrote a seperate handler due to the different nature of web page printing to document printing (frames and all that guff ).

Sorry if this isn't much help...

Unhappy

Cheers guys.

We've agreed to create pages that can be viewed correctly when printed in Portrait mode. We thought as they were designed in 800x600 res it wouldn't be a problem.

Never take anything for granted when dealing with IE or Nutscrape [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]
