From: Josh Davis on 21 Feb 2010 18:56 The reason i do not want PDF for the printable pages is because the viewer may just want one recipe and not want to print the whole book if they wanted the recipe in pdf that would be available in the recipe book information section. It is quicker to just click a link a then click print. In a PDF, the file has to download and then Acrobat has to open the PDF file which is slower in my opinion. As for why not remove the navigation and table if this is soley for print? The short answer is because i like the table layout better on paper and it allows the viewer to not be confused about how to get back to the page they were on. Or they can directly go somewhere else on the site without having to go back to the previous page then go to another area of the site. I want the site to be as direct and fluid as possible. Also the printable page would be both for the site and for print i just want a version that people can preview it as the look at it before printing separate from my online made-for-website-page. I did reduce the navigation font but no one has told me as of yet how to fix the numbering issue of the numbered list.
