handout printing tips

[Nina McHale]

Greetings, all,

Can anyone share some tips about making web documents print neatly as 
8.5 x 11 handouts?  We maintain a couple dozen subject guides and we're 
reconsidering the format. The current web format of the guides, which 
print fine on 8.5 x 11, looks like this:

And we're considering switching to this to make them match the template 
of our website:

Mozilla's "shrink to fit" option truncates the images, and I'd prefer to 
avoid a browser-specific fix, anyway.  We also don't want to maintain 
both an HTML and a .pdf file for each guide.  Is there something simple 
in the code of our current format (I wasn't here when they were 
designed) that makes them word wrap neatly onto a print copy?

Reply to me, and I'll summarize if there's interest. 

Thanks in advance,

Nina
