Printing

I posted this earlier in "General Chat" but got no response.
Maybe this is where I should have posted.

Nonetheless,
I am using a "Plain Text" page.
There is enough stuff on this page that adds it's own scroll bar.

The problem I'm having is that when I print the page, only the stuff that is visible (scroll bar all the way up) prints. The rest is ignored.

How can I get it to print everything on the page?

Thanks,
Robert

Hi,

As far as I can tell, you cannot. This is not specifically a Xerte problem. It is how browsers print content with (internal) scroll bars.

Hi Tom,

That cannot be completely accurate. I create "worksheets" for my classes, using JavaScript. I even have a script for page-breaks and everything prints nicely.

Here are two pages, one written in JavaScript only, one similar but WITHIN Xerte:

1) JavaScript page

2) Xerte page

I just need to figure out what I'm not understanding.

Of course you can this in code. But at this point in time, it's not handled in Xerte itself. You would need to add the code yourself.

Try this...
enable resuming so that you can generate a link direct to your page 2 e.g. will have #resume=2 on the end of the url
then on your page 2 where you want them to print add that link with &display=1024,1800 on the end
adjust the 1800 to be whatever display your inner content without scroll bars.

Might work?
