Full size printing

I would like to have a single page article to be both view-able and printable. Specifically, I have a single page document (Can be either pdf of jpg) that I want the 'viewers' to see the full page and also be able to print so that the document is a normal 8.5 X 11 page.

Because of other column data on our website the pdf has to be set up to a smaller size so that it is viewable, but when printed, it prints with about a 4+ inch margins on the paper.

See: http://bnaisholom.albany.ny.us/adult-ed-class-survey-form for the example of this problem.

Thanks

Bruce,

There are constraints on how each browser decides to display the printable version. To make sure a document prints uniform for everyone you are probably going to have to have a link to the PDF instead of printing from the browser.

Sounds like something that would work. I would probably place the pdf directory of stories what would the link look like (in general).

Thanks...really appreciate your quick response.

Still not receiving the desired result. My goal is to be able to print the CourseSurvey document that is in Images..Stories...PDFs as normal 8.5 x 11 inch page. I do not see any link facility in the article edit page that will go directly to the pdf document.

I would want my users to access (and print) the CourseSurvey.pdf from the Adult Ed Tools article.

Thanks

Works perfectly. I had always figured that I was missing something simple.

Thank you Jared
