See the instructions Wei gives on this page:
http://www.cuetable.com/howto.html#7
Once you get familiar with Wei's keyboard shortcuts, this is easy to do.
However, he does NOT have a facility where you can print DIRECTLY from the
diagram. One way or the other, you will need to create a JPG or GIF out of
the diagram, save it to disk and then print from inside a graphics program.
Even ole MS Paint, once the file is set up would be sufficient to print this
from a graphics file format.
Bill O's idea about the screen capture is the easiest way, when you're
unfamiliar with the diagram's keyboard shortcuts. So, (PCs w/MS Windows,
ONLY, I'm unfamiliar with Macs and/or Linux):
1. Press the "F11" function key to expand your browser to full screen (if
you're using an internet browser other than Internet Explorer, this may be a
different keystroke -- use what's necessary to go to "Full-Screen Mode");
2. Make sure the entire table diagram is showing on your screen (need not
be centered);
3. Hold the "Alt" key and tap the "Print Screen" key (this works on ALL
Windows-based PCs, regardless of browser or Windows version).
You have now created a screen capture of your entire screen in the Clipboard
(or the Clipbook Viewer -- its name depends upon MS Win version). If you're
not sure what the hotkey is to go to full screen mode, on the Main Menu of
your browser, select "View" and on the flydown menu should be "Full
Screen" -- look to the right of this item and the corresponding hotkey
should be shown there -- if it's not, then there is no hotkey and you will
have to find some way to RETURN FROM "Full Screen Mode" other than the usual
hotkey.
4. Open any graphics software (Paint, Imageview, Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro,
Print Shop, Corel Photoprint, Fireworks, whatever);
5. On the Main Menu bar, select: "File," then "New" on the flydown menu;
6. On the Main Menu bar, select "Edit," then "Paste" on the flydown menu.
You now have an active image of the original diagram open in your graphics
software. From there, YOU know what to do to crop it, size it and set it up
to print out properly. As part of this set-up, remember to set your printer
to "Landscape" instead of "Portrait" and to also set-up the "Page Layout" in
your software the same way. Although you can now print DIRECTLY from here,
I would say take the precaution of saving this image FIRST to any graphics
format of your choice. Then, once you are satisfied with the printout, you
can decide whether to keep or delete the file.
Oh yeah, to return from Full-Screen Mode on your browser, press "F11" (or
whatever your non-IE browser's equivalent hotkey was) again ... ;->
