CSS - Print.css - Text Cut-off On Right.
I created a print.css for my site, but it still does not work and would appreciate any help.
Here's my site: http://seniormobility.org/test/actionplan.html Here's the print.css code: Code:
body, .maincopy {
background-color: transparent;
font-size: 12pt;
font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
color: #000000;
}
#navcontainer, #header, #header_pic, #text_control, #header_breadcrumb #search_box {
display: none;
}
#container {
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
float: none;
}
#pagename, #main_content, #main_content_home {
border: 0;
width: 100%;
margin: 0 5%;
padding: 0;
float: none;
overflow: auto;
}
When I do a print preview or actually print in both IE8 and FF, all the text gets cut-off on the right. I'm not sure what I'm missing. Thanks in advance for everyone's help! Similar TutorialsDoes anyone know if it is possible to get text to print white with CSS when printing a page? I know generally you want text black, but this text will be positioned over a black graphic. It seems even when you set the color to white and set it to important in a print style sheet, the print driver sets it to black. Is there any way with a print style sheet to force it to white? Hi I am really struggling to get my print stylesheet as it is. The site is http://calibrehr.com/new/ and the stylesheet is http://calibrehr.com/new/print.css If you print preview say the home page in firefox it cuts off the text at the bottom. IE displays this page ok. Could someone please give me some help with reagrd to this problem, and any advice on making print stylesheets!! Thanks alot! Hi all, Simple issue - got a form with textboxes whose screen width will be less than the max width (for design and spacing purposes). However, I'd like the print stylesheet to make the entire contents of the textbox visible when they print. A year or two ago, setting input{width: auto;} in the print stylesheet worked fine, but it seems the newer browsers (IE 6+. latest FF) do not support this method. Any thoughts on how to do this? Thanks, AJ Hi there...First post in this forum cause Firefox (and mozilla / netscape) are driving me mad! Please consider the following code: Code: <html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
@media print {
p {font-size:11px;text-align:justify;}
table {width:100%;}
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table width="770" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#FFFFCC">

This is basically a reconstruction of an existing problem of a far more complex design...in any case, if you try to print->Preview from Opera or IE 5+ everything is sweet...However, Firefox (and the other Gecko browsers) will not properly justify the text when previewing. More precisiely: Firefox will wrap text over 12px correctly yet for small text, the p block will not wrap properly and some text will be cropped. I'm not fussy about justification but even when I removed it I would get the same problem. I'm sure there's a perfectly logical solution to this problem. Maybe the width:100% gets inherited by the td and p but that should not affect the layout...Despite my various experiements of chaging the width and the wrapping properties, I could not solve this. I'm still learning the intricasies of block elements in CSS2 so I would definitely appreciate any help! Thanks in advance, Angelos We're having a weird problem with a print stylesheet - a little bit of the javascript menu appear on the printed over the top of the content. eg: (http://www.lawhandbook.sa.gov.au/ch10.php ) - Print Preview this page and you will see "Chapters A-Z" in the middle. This seems to happen in all browsers. We've looked into many css solutions to the issue - but to no avail - we cant make the damn thing disappear. One long winded solution is to change the stylesheet to be built dynamically - so a call to ch10.php=true would build the page differently. But this seems to defeat the purpose of using a print stylesheet in the first place. Another long winded soltuion is to change the (Rather old) menu script - but that not really an option in this case either. So my question is - What happens when a browser prints a page? Does it send anything back to the server indicating it is loading the print stylesheet instead? (eg: Some sort of request variable) Or does the client's browser simple request the CSS file and reformat the page it has already downloaded? If so I could detect this event with PHP or Javascript to not load the offending menus when the print css had been loaded Hi guys .... I've been all over google looking for the answer and nothing I've tried works. I'm trying to make a print-friendly css page but my browsers (FF and IE7) both ignore the CSS and apply their own standards to it no matter what I do, it's driving me positively INSANE because it feels like I've done everything according to the instructions I found online for print CSS. Could you please take a look at my code and make some suggestions? You'd be saving my sanity. Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "(URL address blocked: See forum rules)"> <html xmlns="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <head> <title>CLOColors3</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="mainstyle.css" type="text/css" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="mainstyleprint.css" media="print" type="text/css" /> the print css: Code:
@media print {
html{
height:auto;}
body{
background-color:#FFF;}
#header{
display:none;}
#body{
position:relative;
background-color:#FFF;
background-image:none;

#textbox{
position:relative;
overflow:visible;

top: 0px;
width:auto;
bottom:0px;
background-color:#FFF;
border:hidden;
border-color:#FFF;

.video{
display:none;}
#linktext{
display:none;}
#clear_both{
display:none;}
#menu{
display:none;}
#footer{
display:none;}
}
Currently the main CSS is being used and none of the elements I set to be "hidden" are hidden. Help!!! UPDATE: Ok, so IE seems to be PARTIALLY responding to the print CSS. It responds to all the "display:none;" commands but refuses to format the #textbox div according to my instructions, a border persists and the div has an overflow scrollbar for some reason. Firefox is still unresponsive. I have pages the when viewed for print in Firefox, show the page going below the page margin and not continuing to the next logical printed page. This image below, shows better than I can explain. Has anyone ever seen this before?...Any ideas how to make it preview and print correctly? Hello all, I have been trying to get my website to comply with googles page speed and yahoo's yslow. I had 2 seperate css files one for print and one for screen and they wanted them combined. I searched and searched for a way to do this and well I am going to post here how I got things to work in hopes it helps someone else. <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen, print" > NOTE if I make it media="all" print does not work here is code for the main css file that combines the 2 into 1. NOTE also the print is NOT loaded until it is needed. @media screen { /* all screen CSS goes in here */ } @media print { /* all print CSS goes in here */ } U ask why a print.css file? simple it lets me force page breaks so images don't get cut in half. it lets me set a legable size font or larger than what is displayed on screen. Ok here is my problem... in the print.css I don't want to print my backround image. I want just a plain white background. I use a "sprite" to call picture frames for screen. These frames use part of my background image... thus they look bad printed. How do I in the print.css file tell it NOT to print this frame.png file? I assume I will use .noprint DISPLAY:none or something to that effect but where and how to impliment this is over my head and I cannot find any examples of how to do it. Thanks in advance for any suggestions or help whonoes Hi, All the content of my web page is in a table which is 760 pixels width. This is fine on the screen, but when printing, the right part is cut. I tried to set a new css print stylesheet <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="print.css" media="print"> to avoid this problem, but it is not working. I tried to change the margin and padding, but there is no change. I still have the same problem. I tried many different configurations, but none of them worked... I did probably something wrong. I know that the page is properly printed if I change manually the print setting (file -> page setting) margin to 5mm, but how can I do it with the css, in order than everybody who would like to print the page has the complete page printed? Could someone help me? Many thanks hey all, my pages do not print, err they only produce a white page. i have my css set to all media - maybe there is sth. wrong with my jungle of css? i hope someone can help me out on that one. the site is: http://www.chocolateriewanders.com Hello all. How can I print my scrollable table? I tried this.. table.sql { overflow: visible; } in my print.css but it does'nt work. Please help, I'm stumped! Tracy I have a print style sheet which has an undesired result. Apparently by default it prints the url (and the page title) at the top of each page. Can I tell it not to do that or is that a browser preference that can't be overridden with CSS? if you check out this website you'll immediately understand what the problem is about. The script I wrote, pulls pictures out of a database and displays them. I have a print feature (click the link that says: Ik wil de klassenlijst van **** afprinten). With Css I check wether or not a picture can be displayed on this page or if it has to be forced onto another page, when printed. Code:
<style type="text/css" media="print">
table {
page-break-befo auto;
}
</style>
When you check the webpage, you'll notice this row gives problems in IE. When I print the page from Internet Explorer: this row shows on the page, but not the picture that goes along with it. When I print the page from Mozilla: this row does not show on the page, neither the picture that goes along with it. as it should be Can someone help me? It is very important that the pagebreak is automagically forced when printed, because I can't guess the format on which people will print. Hi Could someone assist me in making a print stylesheet for this site please! http://calibrehr.com/new/ What I need is: just the logo to display (remove nav) The text in the orange block to span the width of the page Remove subnav Some how diplsay the text that is in the purple boxes below the main content text I am stuck as to what to do and could really appreciate some help Many thanks! hi I have 2 questions: - how do I programmatically remove default browser header/footer - how do I print a header on every page thanks. Hi all. This is the first time that I am using a print css to define the style of how my web page is printing. However, I am having trouble setting up a style sheet that [IE, Netcsape, (PC) ], [Safari, IE and Netscape (Mac)] all recognised and conform to. Particularly, my div tags for some content seemed to work, while some other div tags do not work. My working file is online: http://www.cfdr.co.uk/kw/examples.htm. My print css file is: http://www.cfdr.co.uk/kw/css/print.css I have 2 major problem. Problem 1: Div tags are not recognised I want to hide the div ids (navigation1, navigation2, navigation3, navigation4, navigation5, navigation6, credit, left content). For example, I have used: #navigation1 {display:none;} in my print css file. However, none of the browsers recognised this. My menu still keep apprearing on my print preview. Problem 2: As a result of the div tags not recognised, I am unable to hide the left columm, which originally contained the logo and image. This has left my text on the right columm to be cut off at the margins. I do not know why this happens. Please, does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Joyce Hello all, Not sure if this is a CSS or Javascript question.. I have a page which has an external CSS sheet, with a part for the @media print styling. On this page I'm also using (throughout my site) a javascript navigation bar. The idea is that when user clicks on a print-button, the whole navigation bar disappears, before printing. The Javascript seems however to add additional DIVS when loading the page which are without any ID, class or nametag, so I tried to get to this "navigationbar-div" via CSS selector combinations - just to find out that apparently CSS cannot select these divs (- maybe because they were added by javascript at runtime???). No matter what I try, it's like CSS doesn't "see" there's additional divs there.. I've also tried to select the concerning DIVs through DOM, but apparently this is still buggy even for modern browsers, so I rather not touch it.. Is there anyway I can get rid of the Javascript navigation bar in my print stylesheet? Thanks for your help! Hello, I understand that there are at least 7+ media types for CSS and more may be added later. http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/media.html I want a special stylesheet for print but all other media should use the same stylesheet. Code: <style type="text/css" media="print">@import "print.css";</style> <style type="text/css" media="all except print">@import "main.css";</style> The following is a bad idea because it does not cover media that may be added in the futu Code: <style type="text/css" media="aural, braille, embossed, handheld, projection, screen, tty, tv">@import "main.css"; <style type="text/css" media="print">@import "main.css"; |
