Printer-Friendly for Typepad
February 8, 2007 10:55 AM Subscribe
Is there an easy-to-follow method for automating printer-friendly pages for Typepad?
I would like to create a link attached to each post, so the user can click on it and have a printer-friendly page of that post open in a new window. The printer-friendly page would use a simple template and stylesheet, separate from the regular stylesheet. I don’t know how to automate this so each individual archive includes this option.
I've searched for and found a method for Movable Type (see here), but it needs a more advanced set-up than Typepad offers (blocked at the latter part of Step 2). Has anybody created a printer-friendly Typepad setup and is willing to share? Thanks.

Seconded. Print-friendly pages went out with rock & roll - CSS print styling is supported in every major browser and doesn't require any additional crap on your pages.

If you need help with the print stylesheet thing I found this article to be a good starting point.
