Hi,

We have a page, developed in Dreamweaver, that when printed, is cut
off on the right side. We do use an outside table (set at 100%)and an
inside table set at 90%. We have images (600 X 400) too. When loaded
into a browser, the page looks fine. When printed, however, the page
is cut off on the right side.

Is there anything we can do? Is there a way to add print properties to
your html page itself (controlling how it prints?).

Thanks

My recommendation is to use a maximum width of 580 pixels to ensure
that pages print properly for the majority of users.  However, if that
is not an option, you can create a "Print Style Sheet" using CSS,
which should be compatible with standards-compliant web browsers
(however, it is not supported in older browsers which some of your
visitors may use).  A Print Style Sheet allows you to set a separate
format for printing that can differ from your style choices for the
screen.

The following link offers a page that you can print to see how various
widths appear on your printer:
