I hadn't seen the other thread here, which, now that I have read it,
appears to already give the above advice. Once I got past the firefox
memory management issues, I have been able to print from it, though I
generated a pdf file from it earlier today and the bulk of the text from
the web page was wrong. It seems that some pages generate correct
output, while others do not. For example, www.sun.com is correct when
printed, but www.opensolaris.org is not.
