Description Nathaniel Taylor 2006-03-02 14:50:04 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

Many webpages are very unsuitable for efficient printing:  for example, side-menus, adverts and pictures can cause the body text to be in a thin column, and fonts can be unnecessarily large for printing.
I often save html code, edit it to obtain just the main text, then set this to a small font and print it:  this way I use far fewer sheets of paper and find the content much easier to read.

To make this task much more convenient, and to allow KDE users to become a little more `tree-hugging', it should be possible to select a particular bit of text in a page and select "print", then have just this text printed out, in a separately set printing font, so as to occupy the full width of the paper.
Is there currently any way of doing this?  Would you please include it?
