Every Interactive Site is an online, real time, interactive Site designed to reflect changes the moment they occur. However, if you must print something, use your browser's Print function (usually available from the Tool Bar under "File...Print..."), making special note about the following items:
- 1. Browsers aren't very good at printing
- Browsers struggle to find page breaks and to size graphics
- 2. Results vary from system to system
- Every printer and desktop combination is slightly different! Thus, the same page printed by your friend's computer may look quite different from your results.
- 3. Many web pages are not designed to be printed
- While many computer programs print great reports, web browsers currently aren't one of them. If you simply must print web pages, we recommend downloading the information to a word processing or publications program.
When printing web pages, results are usually best when the information fits onto one piece of paper. Printing information that exceeds one page can become "messy" due to page breaks. To avoid these problems, the best solution is to check the Site regularly for updated information, rather than printing it out. (Plus, you'll save the trees!)
If you still have a strong desire to print things, the site tries to make available pages that are relatively easy to print through the use of the Printable Symbol , which will provide a result without the Table of Contents (left side of the Browser window), the logical page header, and the logical page footer.
