Themes that Print Well

  • Unknown's avatar

    Not that I want to customize another theme, but…

    When I try to print a page, it has very wide margins, and even a little text takes several pages. Are there themes that have a “look good on printer” option?

    Currently, our course selection, supply list and calendar are in PDFs, but it would be much faster if I could edit them directly in WordPress.

    I’ve tried enabling “print” in sharing. That strips some of the stuff that appears on every page, but still gives huge margins with just a little text per page.

    Thanks in advance,
    Sandy

    Try Twenty Ten:

    Beautiful in Print
    Everyone has experienced unpleasant surprises when trying to print an article from a web site. Twenty Ten includes special styles for printing, so you’ll get printed copies that are just as easy to read as the original. http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/twentyten/

    Long story short:

    Thanks!

    Turns out the problem is Firefox. Twenty Eleven prints fine in Chrome and Explorer. (Should have tested that first. Since most of the members aren’t comfortable with computers, I’m happy enough assuming they have IE, and will add “best printed with Explorer” to the page.) Now to decide if it’s worth the change for this year’s calendar.
