Print Preview redux

Post by highstream »

I wanted to pass along a simple example of why scalable print preview/print is important: http://fasterskier.com/blog/ar.... The TV schedule, which is well down the page, is split between two pages with Print Preview and there's no way to adjust it for one. With Firefox (or IE11), I can quickly adjust for the best scaling (81%) and then print (and post it on my refrigerator). The inability to do that with Slimjet, or even quickly open the page from Slimjet in another browser that does scale, which I can do by modifying Opera 12's address bar, makes it less useful for my needs - and basically not more advantageous than the other Chromium/Blink-based competition. I'm hoping one of you will come through.

Here's another example, one that poses a common problem: due to inattentive web page programming, text is cut off on the right in print preview and needs to be scaled down to be whole. In the following case, no amount of scaling would solve it, but in the vast vast majority of cases it does. http://www.webmd.com/cholesterol-manage ... -groceries
