Hi Charles and Ben,
I use an adon on Firefox, and there are lots of these adons available for all browsers.
The one I like is called "Print Edit WE".
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-CA/firefox/search/?q=Print
It lets you delete elements from the webpage before you print, and you can save it in different formats such as images or pdf.
Thanks,
Margaret

Hi Charles,
After remembering the last line about small print, I tried increasing the font size of the names of the programmes (using Firefox's Inspector to set the font-size from 10px to 1rem). That may make printing a readable table easier.
Hope this helps!
Ben

I found that the schedule is loaded into a frame. When I right-clicked the schedule in Firefox and selected to "Show only this frame", it loaded https://composer.nprstations.org/widgets/iframe/weekly.html?v=5.13.1&station=53a987a7e1c8a9517b2d9b38 - the actual schedule.
Then I could right-click and take a screenshot of the whole page. See the attached result.
Regards,
Ben

Subject: Re: [CODE4LIB] Printing WYSIWYG from a Web site Hi Dan,
Thank you for sharing that in Chrome.
In the spirit of sharing...
You can do screenshots of an entire web "page" (all the pages on a wne site as you scroll down in both FF and Vivaldi.
In FF press Ctrl + Shift + K then in the command window if you want all the pages type Not in quotes but added here as an effect...
":Screenshot(sp)- - fullpage"
don't type in Sp that just means space followed by 2 dashes.
You will hear the sound of it making a snapshot like an old camera and then loo on your hard drive in the Download folder and it saves it as a jpg.
In Vivaldi, just scroll down all the pages and on the bottom there is a camera icn which when you press on it you can choose PNG or jpf and just the screen or the whole site (all the pages as you scroll down) and that's saved on your hard drive in your Downloads folder.
Neither will accomplish what I want.
I want to save only the screen on this web site with the days of the week and th schedules programs.

If I copy and paste inot MS Word the formatting gets all scrwed up.
Any time I save as a pdf or jpf or png and then open that file in Adobe
(PDF) MS Paint, etc prints tiny no matter what margins scaling etc I choose.
A3 freezes the printer so that's not a solution.
Printing in A3 did little.
So, letter (8.5 x 11), A3, A4 don't work.
Chrome, THe Edge, FF, Opera, Vivladi - no difference as the printer will not print what I see (large enough character size like i see on the Web site in any browser.
It's exasperating.
Thanks,
Charles.
