Print page Size

Need a shrink to fit option in my print.css file. IE prints only the left side of the page!

I have built this page which uses several WebAssist extension but also others which may be the problem.
Go to this URL and print it from a PC ( Mac prints perfect):tblVendors_Detail2.php?ID=147

see attached print.css file

any suggestions would be appreciated

I printed this page on a PC with Chrome and IE8. The output looks correct for both of these. The only difference that I notice is that in Chrome the buttons are printed on a second page, but other than that they look the same.

What version of IE are you trying this with, also what exactly are you getting for the output?

Please try printing this one on a windows computer tblVendors_Detail.php?ID=132.

In IE the page is off center and cuts off the right side. On my Mac everything prints fine.

Chrome on the PC prints fine. But IE is what the client wants.

thanks

Both IE8 and IE7 give you the option to choose a percentage of the original size to print out. On my machine 85% was perfect.

Couldn't your client just do the same?

Just to add to this last post, when I printed this out with IE8 I did not see any issues with the size or alignment of the page, I did not have to make any adjustments and the page printed correctly.
