I've added that to the TiddlyPocketBook code: http://svn.tiddlywiki.org/Trunk/contributors/PaulDowney/verticals/TiddlyPocketBook/shadows/ > It could probably use some tweaks, but the resulting page was much > easier on my aging eyes. My eyes are aging too, but wondered about making the default print stylesheet smaller, to be credit card sized. That way it would fit on both A4 and Letter paper. > I still need to shrink it a little (94%), because > the setup assumes full edge-to-edge access for the paper surface. > Very few (any?) printers print all the way into the margins of the paper. > Probably need another stylesheet like StyleSheetPrintLetterM25 that > assumes quarter inch margins. On the Mac I've experienced vagaries of paper scaling when printing from Safari, Chrome and Firefox.

Ah, that seems tricky, I'll see if I can surface the selection of the Page size as an option, in the meantime I've extracted the switch into a new tiddler StyleSheetPrintPage tiddler: http://tiddlypocketbook.com/#StyleSheetPrint%20StyleSheetPrintPage%20StyleSheetPrintA4%20StyleSheetPrintLetter Thanks for the contribution! -- Paul (psd) http://blog.whatfettle.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
