My Christmas project was to crack the problem of printing pages that are too wide for the printer. Without writing a complete browser, it would obviously be impossible to print a long page that spread over more than one, but I have found and programmed a solution to the problem of printing a page that is say 1200 pixels wide and about 1600 deep. The solution takes a bitmap of the page and sizes it to the printer.
I have programmed the solution into a browser, which is part of my Daisy Web Tools which have a web site. The web site is not quite finished yet, as I’m developing the other products in the suite. The print solution is in the Multiple and Presentation Browsers. They also contain the ability to print a web page without those annoying headers at the top and bottom. To get this printing just use the Print button in either browser.
If anybody wants to use the program, there is a temporary registration that will give full access to the programs. One of the uses of the Presentation Browser may well be in the field of such things as copyright, where when you see an infringement, you can then print the whole page, add a few notes to it and then send it to your lawyer!
