Can printer software be configured to select the portion of screen desired?
Kubuntu 12.10 KDE 4.9.3
www.tweakhopund.com/virtualbox/vb4page2.html. I wanted to copy the tutorial to a hard copy. First I set the screen to portrait. When I printed the document, the focus of the website, being the tutorial, was trimmed and parts of the screen shots, including data were trimmed, nonetheless, the advertisements on either side remained. Since the object of the project was to print the tutorial, I changed from portrait to horizon to see if I could include the data on the screen shots. The result was the same; data was trimmed from the tutorial grafics and data, but the advertisements were preserved. This is nuts! Who would ever want to keep a hard copy of commercial ads? The whole objective of making the hard copy is to preserve the contents of the presentation.
Nevertheless, I was never able to find configurable changes that would solve the problem.
Is there printer software that will function in my Operating System that permits selecting a part of screen that runs several pages and can trim unwanted portions of the screen? An additional benefit of this would be to be able to increase font size for the printable area and still contain all the data, making for easier reading.
Another good reason for doing this is, when you have only one monitor and are following the tutorial step by step, you are able to install the application with less difficulty. You are not required to go back and forth from tutorial screen to installation screen, as you install the project. Thanks!
