make an HTML page... restrict it to maybe 560px wide... lay out your stuff in
black text on a white background... test print it from a few browsers... there
you go...
now, if you use CSS to define your fonts, you might wanna try using points,
since i've had better luck with them for printing... YMMV...
that's all there is to it...
actually, there could be a lot more to it, but let's not make it difficult...
prepare for weird page breaks, low image quality, the browser date/time/page/URL
info that gets printed in the four corners of a default NN/IE install, etc...
