Here is the original website  page:
http://www.michaelang.com/a/92/fall-classes-at-the-lemurplex.html

When printed using Safari 2.0.4, this is the resulting PDF. It it looks like the stylesheet is missing or something.

Here are the webarchive and pdf files created by my application. As with Safari, the web page looks great but the PDF page looks terrible.

Well basically you are right. The stylesheet is missing when printing. But this seems to be a design choice. If you look at line 7 of the page source you will see the line:

        <style type="text/css" media="screen">

The media attribute is set so that the stylesheet is only applied when the page is viewed on a screen. When printing it is not used.

Anybody know what is going on?

Well either the page is missing a stylesheet for media="print" or the given stylesheet should not be limited to media="screen". Unless of course the author wanted it this way on purpose. Using custom stylesheets for printing can very effectively enhance readability and printability of printed web pages.


BTW. This question has nothing to do with the development of webkit. It would be better placed on [EMAIL PROTECTED] or some other HTML/CSS forum.
