Print Without margins our Titles/dates etc about printthis

Hi Dave,

it looks like you will need to add some specific css to handle this
scenario.

You can use the @page directive to remove the default print margins, in
addition to overriding any css margins/padding/alignment in your css.

 @page  {
    size: auto;   /* auto is the initial value */

    /* this affects the margin in the printer settings */
    margin: 25mm 25mm 25mm 25mm;  } /* try 0 */

 body  {
    /* this affects the margin on the content before sending to printer */
    margin: 0px;  }

Change the margin under @page and let me know how that works out.

Hi Jason,

Thank you so much. That worked an absolute treat. Just for info, here is the output of the working image.

Hi Jason,

I think I spoke to soon, I just tried it in IE and it looks the same as per the image in my first post. Can I check that my settings are correct:

    debug: false,           // show the iframe for debugging
    importCSS: false,        // import parent page css
    printContainer: false,   // print outer container/$.selector
    loadCSS: "/style/printbarcode.css",            // load an additional css file
    pageTitle: "",          // add title to print page
    removeInline: false     // remove all inline styles

Hi Jason,

Sorry to drive you mad. I just embedded my CSS directly in the page and set the importCSS to true and the margins do get set in IE, however I still get the Page1 of 1. So I must be somehow using the URL incorrectly in loadCSS ?

Dave,

try the full path - or embed the print styles into one of your other stylesheets.

Because the plugin creates an iframe, a relative path won't work correctly.

Thanks,

Hi Jason, I fed in the css from my calling document (importCSS) which worked fine. For info I could not get the loadCSS to work.

Anyway thanks for the function and your assistance - all much appreciated.
