Gravity Forms does not. Gravity Forms simply outputs a form on the page, that is all. </p> <p>Gravity Forms is not going to control how your page prints, that is something that is more appropriate at the WordPress theme level. Just like your theme dictates what your web site looks like, your theme should dictate how it prints.</p> <p>This is something that must be handled by making a printer friendly stylesheet for your theme and targeting the printer using CSS media types. You can read more about what is involved here:</p> <p><a href="http://www.alistapart.com/articles/goingtoprint/" rel="nofollow">http://www.alistapart.com/articles/goingtoprint/</a></p> <p>Controlling the print styles on your web site is something that is completely outside the scope of what Gravity Forms is designed to do. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/printing-form-cutting-off-text#post-58367 Wed, 09 May 2012 13:34:21 +0000 All 58367@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Other websites do handle the browser variations and limitations. It would be appreciated if gravity forms also handled it by default. Telling the customer it's not you it's them doesn't really work and also generated much more email traffic on something that should be handled at the code level , chrome isn't always an option and in a perfect world everyone would have a unified standard.</p> <p>thanks keep up the good work. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/printing-form-cutting-off-text#post-37773 Wed, 12 Oct 2011 21:13:08 +0000 Kevin Flahaut 37773@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I've tested printing the entries in pretty much all of the current PC and Mac OS browsers.. Every one seems a bit different, but as Carl mentioned, they all have different defaults it seems when it comes to scaling, adding header elements, etc. Once I tweaked the settings, everything printed pretty well.</p> <p>I wish it was something you could control better globally but you're really limited by the way the browsers handle it. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/printing-form-cutting-off-text#post-37763 Wed, 12 Oct 2011 20:06:15 +0000 All 37763@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>thanks carl. Looks like safari 5.1.1 and firefox 7.0.1 have this issue but chrome doesn't </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/printing-form-cutting-off-text#post-37757 Wed, 12 Oct 2011 18:24:02 +0000 Carl Hancock 37757@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>This isn't a Gravity Forms issue. You may need to adjust your print settings. Each browser also handles printing differently and some have more options than others. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/printing-form-cutting-off-text#post-37752 Wed, 12 Oct 2011 18:16:52 +0000 All 37752@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The form i created I attempted to print it.
