    Default I want to link to a printable page (graphic) from an icon

    Hi Folks.

    I hope someone can help me with this. I have created a graphic which is letter size, and would like to be able to link it from a printer icon on another page so that it pops open in a new window, and can be printed.

    I can't figure out a way to get a blank page without the headers, navbar, footers etc. to link to, so, I created a bitmap and managed to find a way to get it into the bitmap gallery. The bitmap is 8.5 x 11 inches and I would like to have it printable.

    Is there an easy way to do this?

    I've been at this for hours and haven't figured it out yet.

    Thanks in Advance

    Pete

    Thanks anyway folks!
    I figured it out. I used the link to file button earlier and I tried it again and found that the image was not what I thought I saved. I re-saved my image (not just a dot), linked to the file and everything works just peachy!

    Glad you sorted it Pete. I would suggest you create a downloadable pdf file at 300 dpi but if your bitmap prints fine that's okay too.
