CSS Printing - @media Rule
You can use CSS to change the appearance of your web page when it's printed on a paper. You can specify one font for the screen version and another for the print version.
You have seen @media rule in previous chapters. This rule allows you to specify different style for different media. So, you can define different rules for screen and a printer.
The example below specifies different font families for screen and print. The next CSS uses the same font size for both screen as well as printer.
<style type = "text/css"> <!-- @media screen { p.bodyText {font-family:verdana, arial, sans-serif;} } @media print { p.bodyText {font-family:georgia, times, serif;} } @media screen, print { p.bodyText {font-size:10pt} } --> </style>
If you are defining your style sheet in a separate file, then you can also use the media attribute when linking to an external style sheet −
<link rel = "stylesheet" type = "text/css" media = "print" href = "mystyle.css">
