[Nfb-web] Creating Printer-friendly versions of Web pages

Peter,

Milton is right that GW Micro might help, but if it is time sensitive, I'd create a PDF.  If the audience is primarily blind, you 
might want to also have a Word version.  If the information is static, that is, it doesn't change, then a print-friendly 
version of the page could be created once manually.  You may well want to learn how to do this dynamically, but I don't 
think I'd spend the time right now if there is a time pressure.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson
