Meeting the needs of your business from a distance

Make Any Site Printer-Friendly

by Mark Shiffer 10/7/2008 11:47:00 AM

Republished here (from Channel 10) to remind me later:

You know what’s really annoying? When you go to print out something from the web but the site has no “print” button to reformat the website for the printed page. What you usually end up with (if you’re not careful about configuring the options after doing a thorough “print preview”) is a bunch of wasted paper as excess content like ads and page footers end up on separate pages. There should be a better way, don’t you think? Well, there is. A site called PrintWhatYouLike.com lets you simply plugin a URL and then click the parts of the page you want to print. You can also choose to get rid of things like the site’s background, images, or other hand-selected content you choose. In absence of a real print reformatting engine, this is the next best thing.
