Thanks for bringing up this solution. However... I already thought
of this option myself. Problem, though, is that _ALL_ my pages
should be printable. Maybe a very small number of pages will not
have to be printable, but those are so small that the compression
isn't realy necesary. Besides that I don't realy like sites that use
separate 'printer-friendly' pages. When I'm looking at some page I
just want to be able to print it rightaway. And I want to give my
clients this opportunity to. That's why I also have a separate
(extra/own) print-button on my sites. The user can just use that
without realy having to know how the browser works (concerning
printing). Because you will just not believe how 'stupid' some users
are.
But anyway... any other solutions are ofcourse _very_ much welcome
and I'll keep y'all posted a.s.a. I get some more info about this
subject.
