Hi there

I made a planning view in a html page (generated in php, but not important).
Width of this page : 2000 or 3000 pixels !! (because the view shows 4 months).
My problem is simple : how to print the page entirely ????
Under firefox and IE, it's impossible, the browser print only in
printer margin and cut the rest.
I'd like a print like under excel : print at 100% (and not print all
pages on one at 10%, impossible to read), on as many sheet as needed.
Then my print would take approximatively 3 sheets, that i could nail on my board.

Some answers already verfied :
- no print screen via word or image editor. this planning tool must be
usable for everybody...
- no PDF generating from my php code (too long to code)
- i've already tried a PDF printer, but do the same thing that browser
(print only the first page).
- no vertical planning : i will not change my planning template, it's
exactly what i want, i want only to be able to print it entirely !!!!

Does someone have an idea ??

I've forgotten : if i'm not clear, you can download a preview at
http://www.inplano.com/planning.zip
Then try to print easily and quickly the full page...

Thanks for you answers.
The first solution given is the easier for me to use, and to explain to my users.
And it work great.
The only thing i can't do is to print directly the capture, but i've
sent a requirement to the plugin developer.

Here is dirty hack, I used Pearl Crescent Page Saver extension[1] for
Mozilla Firefox to capture the entire page as an image.

A thumbnail of the sample capture is available here.

[1] http://pearlcrescent.com/products/pagesaver/ is simple and usable,
the free version has just two options. How simple it can be :o)

Sorry I gave a wrong image link. Here is correct image page link.

I'm not sure I understand the problem with PDF:

Acrobat can print that large page onto as many smaller pages as you
need, or you can create a new PDF with the pages already split:

<a href="http://www.allens.com/pdf/20060905_planning_projet2.pdf">http://www.allens.com/pdf/20060905_planning_projet2.pdf</a>

hi bougli-ga,

I guess that my solution worked for you. Wonder why you didn't change
this question as 'answered'?
