I strongly agree!

I've resorted to printing landscape, but it takes more paper then.

You can copy/paste the messages into a word processor and then format how you like. I find this easier than printing the Web page.

Greg,

As others have suggested, you can copy/paste into a word processor. I use the WordPad that comes with Windows. Simply highlight the entire thread, Ctrl-c to copy the highlighted area, then run WordPad, and Edit> Paste Special and on the Paste Special dialog, choose Unformatted Text. That works very well when you are using the forum option to see the entire thread at the same time.

We're working on a redesign of the website right now and I've added a feature to print a printer-friendly version of the pages. If you've got a minute, check it out and let me know what you think.

Go to http://beta.sonicfoundry.com/forums/ open a thread you'd like to print, and click the "Print this page" link at the bottom of the page.

FYI: You'll probably want to log-in on the beta site so that you'll get your customized view of the forums.

GOOOOO SonicKSA. First rate. Keep developing.

One IMPORTANT Suggestion: BIGGER PRINT ON SCREEN, PLEASE! The font you are using is TINY! unless I change my resolution JUST to ready your forum. Double Plus UNGood to have to do that.

I suggest at least TWICE the point size.

Glad you like it.

As for the fonts, you can adjust your font size once you're logged into the forums. Go to "Edit Account", then under "font size" choose a setting. At the largest size, it'll make the default font 14px, which should be plenty big.

Once you've made that setting change in the forums, you'll see bigger fonts on most of the sonicfoundry.com site. Once we've launched the new site (currently at beta.sonicfoundry.com), this setting change will adjust the font size on the entire site.

It works nice---like the little red Icon!

SonicKsa,

The beta forum looks good and printed nicely. Thanks for setting this up.

Re: the above threads, I know I can cutn paste, but I was just feeling lazy....

What little red icon. I have been on the beta site a dozen or more times, and have yet to see it. I always see a "failed to load" icon where another icon should have been, if that is what you mean. It always fails on my machine. Been wondering what it was.

I think I'm missing something...I see references in here to "edit account" to change this forum's settings, but I have no box to click in that regard at the top of my forums page, or for that matter, any page. I've combed thru Forums/Search/Login/Register/FAQ, and the missing box is not in any of these either. Has it gone AWOL?

Labatt50: across my screen i see Forums | Search | Edit Account | Logout | FAQ.

The "Login" link should be replaced with "Edit Account" after you log in.

Will we be able to print individual replies?

Labatt50, were you ever able to figure this out? It sounds like you may have cookies disabled, or just were not logged into the forums when you were looking for the 'edit account' link. If you're having to enter your username and password everytime you post a message, that's further evidence of cookie problems.
