Two ways:
1) output each as a separate file & print job
2) output as a single file, count lines and add the required number
of blank lines between files
For Option 1, you have the flexibility of the application (browser) and the
OS Print Interface to determine some of the output format(page size,
reduction, etc.) at print time.
For option 2, you must create a fixed format at creatin time. You
probably want to output a text file rather than an html file, so you
can determine/control things such as:
font spacing (probably fixed)
line size
page size
placement of lines
