LOL! I take it, by internal folks you
mean faculty types with, as one would
expect, an education somewhat beyond a
high school diploma.

There is a few PHP (and php+perl/etc) things out there that do html to
pdf but none of them are quite right. One will find that they need to
spend a lot of time tweaking their output and if you are printing with
complex floats even add additional markup to compensate for bugs. So

The University of Waterloo has print CSS that removes the left
navigation and changes the layout to 100% from a fixed pixel

Decline? There are only two truly decent print styles I've ever seen,
ala and bbc news. Every wonderful article

The preview looks decent but the php causes my browser to tell me that
'the page was replaced while you were trying to print it'...

I have intended to build as many of my websites as I can that have
printer friendly pages by using print styles.
