If you really want to force the page set up and want to define the width of table in millimeters for printing, use style sheets. For example, in CSS2, one can write something like this: @media print { @page { size: 200mm 297mm; /* A4 size paper */ margin: 10mm; } table { width: 100mm } } This style sheets will specify the paper size as A4 with 10mm margins, and the width of table will be 100mm when you print the document. With @media rule, conforming CSS2 user agents will apply this style sheets only for printing. See the CSS2 Specification [1] for more detail. If you want to discuss style issues, use www-style@w3.org instead of www-html@w3.org. [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2 Regards, -- Masayasu Ishikawa / mimasa@w3.org W3C - World Wide Web Consortium
