printing

[russellbcopeland]

Does anyone know of a control that works with ASP.NET that allows a web form to be resized and generated as a pdf or some such for printing purposes? I've seen numerous IE add-ons that do this kind of thing but no controls that I can embed in my webpage or run as server controls to return this type of output.

Basically I am looking for an easy way to make existing web forms printable and scaled to fit a standard piece of paper.

you can use Crystal reports or printing the html to pdf is possible.

you should find lots of articles here or, do a google search.

one other thing you can do is to create a printable version of a page.
create a link button that opens the same page in another window but without all the graphics etc. you could adjust the controls to fit on your page.

Using CSS, you can simply create a print stylesheet that will automatically be applied by the browser when the user clicks print. Simply use this stylesheet to position and only show the relevant info you want to be printed.
