Re: Using Netscape

[Novak <novak@NETOPTIONS.COM.AU>]

Many thanks to the thirty + people who responded to my request of how to
copy part of a web site and print it and how to determine the length of
web site.

Nearly all the answers were the same -  use a Notepad or some kind of word
processing package for highlighting, copying, pasting, saving or printing
and to use Print Preview for determining the length of the document.

Here is a hit of some of the techniques used.... Thanks to you all for
responding.

Try highlighting the section of the page you want and then go to "edit"
within Netscape and select copy.  Minimize netscape and open your word
processing application and paste it to that document.  Leave both netscape
and word processing apps open and you can continue to do this back and forth
until finished.  Did you know you can go quickly between applications by
using the alt & tab keys until you get to the application you want??  It's a
big time saver.  Good luck.

Yay!  A question I can answer!  Go to File and Choose Print Preview.  This
will show you how long the article is.  Use the next page buttons at the
top.  You can also use the Zoom in button to get a closeup, so you can see
what page the part you want is on.  (Go to the bottom of the page to see the
page number.)  Then, when you click on print, it will say   "From 1     to
______"
Let's say you want to print pages 4,5, and 6.  Click on the 1 and delete it.
Type in 4.  Then, go to the "to" box.  Click on it, and when you get the
"flasher", type in 6.  Then,  click on "ok" and it will print!

It took me a while to figure this out, and I was printing 9 page articles
for only 1 paragraph of information!!

Hint:  Open File and choose Print Preview.  When your pointer turns to a
magnifying glass, enlarge the page numbers to see how long it is, then
just print the specific page or pages needed.

Hi, I use Microsoft Word to print from Netscape. I highlight the part of
the Netscape page I want to print, go to Edit, and then to Copy. Then I
open a new Word document and using Word's Edit menu, I Paste what I had
highlighted. I'm sure this would work with any other word processor. To
get to the word processor easily either Alt-Tab if you are using 3.1 or
gp to programs on 95 and open it. Then leave it open in case you find
another thing you want to copy and paste.
