ExWebDev Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Hey guys (and gals):ExWebDev here. Had 10 years in the biz but March 2001 wasn't kind. I now work in the mortgage industry but still dabble. Ok, enough about me... call me a two-time newbie.I have a small project where I want to allow users to print out a real estate flyer that's been created by data supplied by form field information entered by user. I've written the basic application using HTML and PHP so a pop-up window displays the complete "custom" flyer in a web browser window.My goal: Allow my users to print out the dynamically generated flyer on their printer... on a *single* piece of 8.5x11 paper. I've used the import markup to control how sites control printout of web pages but am a bit mystified if it's possible to specify page dimensions in terms of inches and/or limit output to a single page (i.e. the Windows scale-to-fit concept). Any suggestions? Thanks in advance,David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FirefoxRocks Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Maybe you want to generate a dynamic PDF file from PHP. You can control printed documents much more with PDF. Otherwise you will have to rely on user-configuration, margins, CSS print properties and printers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
