Hello all,
Has any print support been added yet for HTML?
I had to write a program about a year a go to translate HTML into
EPS...and added support for invisible tags like: <!--HEAD--><!--FOOT-->
<!--PAGE LMARGIN=X RMARGIN=Y BREAK-->
The only thing I need is reasonable support for
print-only and view-only regions
page headers/footers
tables with rolling headers/footers.
Is this something I can easily do with styles? Can someone give me an
example?
