print style for bulletproof

Post by konus »

Hello, I would like to print the article into a pdf and send it to other people to read an correct it before the article gets released to the public. So I would have to print the draft/ preview out of the admin-screen.

To make the print a little better, I would like to create a css-style for printing the administration-surface and set the sidebar and the header to display:none.

What would I have to do? Is there any other way of displaying the article-draft for printing?

s9y uses an iframe to display an entry preview... Using firefox, I have often right clicked on that iframe and selected "open frame in new tab" or something like that. Would that accomplish your objective?

I just found the perfect way to solve the problem: In the overview of all articles is a button preview. This works even, if the article is in draft mode and does not hav any other elements of it. Thats better than printig out of the edit-mode.

Thank you for your help!
