View applet printing

This application contains everything you need to add advanced view printing capabilities to your Notes applications. Lotus Notes/Domino release 5.x or higher is required to run the code.

Typically, when printing information displayed in a browser view applet, only the visible contents will print. This application demonstrates how to create a printer-friendly view of a view applet when displayed in a Web browser. It can also be used with HTML views, enabling the whole view to be printed instead of just the visible page.

In addition, it shows how to create a dynamic form, which opens in a new browser window, with the entire view displayed and formatted in HTML to match the formatting of the view, as displayed in the applet.

Font sizes, colors, categorizations, totals, responses, etc., are retained in the formatting.
