| Printing something from my webpage
Posted: 2/16/2007 3:03:50 PM | I've set up a page that has a coupon on it and I'd like my customers to be able to print it out. The coupon has a white background but when printed the background is pure black. It's saved in .png format. Could that have anything to do with it? I'd put the url in here but I don't think I'm allowed to do that.
Thanks! | |

Posted: 2/16/2007 3:13:42 PM | I don't have a definitive answer for you, as you've not really provided enough information, but here are some things you could look at to try and locate the problem:
1) Have you set the background to transparent in the PNG image? If you have then when viewed on a webpage the background of the image would be the same as the webpage (I'm making a presumption here that the background of the webpage is white). You could test this out by changing the background colour of the webpage.
2) Have you tried multiple printers and/or printer drivers? You may of come across something fubar in a particular printer/driver combination.
3) Have you tried converting the image into a different format and printing that? If not, give it a go and see what happens.
Hope this helps.
:-))
P.S. If you want a second pair of eyes to look at the image then mail me the URL and I'll see what I can do. | |
