Thanks for the pointer to printfriendly. I was not aware of it. I installed it on my browser for my
personal use where I've been using printwhatyoulike for a long time.
However, I can't use it on the site I'm working on for various reasons.
First and foremost, if it does work well enough on the test page, there are other, more complex
pages on the site where printfriendly eliminates way too much useful information. And the styling is
really not to my taste. So I need to write the print stylesheet myself.
Also, there is the problem of the ads (which can be removed for a small fee).
