Hi Josh,
Yeah, I guess that makes sense. I'll get my sleeves rolled up with PHP's
PDF libraries.
Thanks for the AU$0.02

Ideally I don't want the user to have to go through any print setup
operations each time they print, or to make too many assumptions about
their current setup. For example, it would be good if filenames etc were
not printed by default at the top of the page. So, in an ideal world,
the code and css would take care of most of that and the letter would be
displayed on-screen in a format that the user could just hit 'print'.
Use server-side PDF generation. You can't control browser
header/footer output by Javascript, etc., and this is really the only
reliable way to make sure it does things properly. Advantage of
universal browser support, too. And it's hard to imagine your clients
not having Adobe Reader installed (certainly, it's more common than
Firefox if you're going to be mandating platforms).
My AU$0.02.
