There's a set of case studies here: http://www.princexml.com/samples/#wiki You can use Prince for free for non-commercial purposes. Wikipedia's HTML markup is suboptimal for printing, ofte due to the use of the 'style' attribute which hardcodes presentations for screens. http://www.princexml.com/bb/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3823 In Norway, we have started a project to exterminate the 'style' attribute. Here's a description (in Norwegian): http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Underprosjekter/Utryddelse_av_«style»-attributtet Good progress has been made in the templates. Most of the remaining issues are in the Mediawiki software itself. For example, in markup like this: <div class="thumbinner" style="width:222px;"><a href="/wiki/Fil:FeleHel_(2).jpg" class="image"><img alt="" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bf/FeleHel_%282%29.jpg/220px-FeleHel_%282%29.jpg"; width="220" height="431" class="thumbimage" /></a> Perhaps one could create classes for the most common sizes? (220px seems quite common) Then there's these: <div id="mw-js-message" style="display:none;"></div> <div id="p-logo"><a style="background-image: url(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/no/b/bc/Wiki.png);"href="/wiki/Portal:Forside" title="Hovedside"></a></div> <div style="clear:both"></div> Efforts to rmove these -- by turning them into classes -- will be much appreciated.
