Printing Problems

[trk]

Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to control the page margins while printing the form from the browser.

The form is printed complete in pdf format. But when the same form(html) is printed from the browser, it leaves large margins (almost half inch left margin and one inch right margin).

The challenge here is how to make the html forms that look like pdf forms. They are basically html templates and the data is filled in to them programmatically (using ASP). When i print the html forms it should look same as pdf forms.

Is it possible?
If so...please share your ideas.

You can email me at [email protected]
Thanks in advance.

If you can restrict/recommend your users to use IE 4.01 or higher, you can use the ScriptX component from http://www.meadroid.com/scriptx to control printing.

This component enables you to set the orientation, footer/header text and margins in code without changing the browser's original settings.

....and it's free!
