    If it were me, and I'm understanding correctly a blank unfilled form, I would export the form as a .pdf and make a link to it. Then it can be printed from there.

    Most of these site have a "print this form" on them - how do they make it print just the form? - jb

    Hi Jeb,

    Not that I have a ton of experience with html but a couple years ago I saw an html code with java script that could be used in a placeholder I'm sure.....it would print the form exactly how you're describing....that was however, many PCs ago, so don't know if I have that script anyware anymore.

    Perhaps one of the gurus here can recreate it?

    Ed......:-)

    To print a page, in a placeholder you can enter:

    <A HREF="javascript:window.print()">Click to Print This Page</A>

    Or add a link to text on your page by adding this to the 'Link to Web Address'

    javascript:window.print()

    For a button use:

    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
    <!-- Begin
    if (window.print) {
    document.write('<form>'
    + '<input type="button" name="print" value="Print This Page" '
    + 'onClick="javascript:window.print()"></form>');
    }
    // End -->
    </SCRIPT>
