[QUOTE="shadzar, post: 5428215, member: 6667746"] I haven't seen a DDi article in years, but if they are still in locked PDF format, with all the artwork on the border, then there is no such thing as a printer friendly view (cant edit the file to remove the image objects fromt he page to print only the images and text you need), but columns on the WotC site USED TO have a printer friendly view with 2% of the background type graphics and only what was needed of the other imagery and graphics that relate directly to the columns/content. From what I can see of the table, and this and that of the columns, there is still a LOT of images which would eat trough ink/toner. Also, never said it was a GOOD option...just that is was an option for those wanted the material printed within. Of course, if they are still PDFs and the print ability was also locked, then it wasn't an option at all, but that would sort of been a bad idea to do for people without laptops and didnt want to sign in from unknown computers, and just wanted a page of soemthing printed out. A DDi subscriber would have to tell us unknowing about the state of the articles and such to know if they would be ink wasters or not. [/QUOTE]
