Amaya is able to print your documents with or without CSS style sheets on both Unix and Windows platforms. On Unix platforms it is only able to generate Postscript description, so you need to have a PostScript printer or use a application able to translate the PostScript into your specific printer language.
There are three ways for printing a document thru Amaya:
File/Setup and
Print)
, which allows you to set some parameters and options before
printing.File/Print
), which
prints a document using the configuration setup thru the previous
command.This command allows you to set up different parameters and options. Note that some parameters and options are reset to their default value when you browse another document. This clear up depends on each platform.
Under Unix, you can set the following parameters:
In addition, you can select the following options:
On Windows platforms, a first dialogue box will propose the following options:
then the standard Windows dialogue will let you choose the other printing parameters.
On Windows platforms, the first time you launch the command Print, the standard Windows dialogue will be displayed to let you check that the default printer is correct. The following Print commands will be launched without any dialogue.
Links are not printed as underlined. To make this happen, your user style
sheet (file amaya.css
in your Amaya home directory) should contain:
@media print {a:link {text-decoration: underline} ... }
Amaya supports the CSS page break properties: "page-break-before: always". When that property is attached to a specific element by an attribute style, it generates a page break before that specific element. When that property is attached to an element type within the style element of the document or within an external CSS style sheet, it generate a page break before each instance of that element.
