Print stylesheet

[Former Member]

Hi,

I did the modifications specified for the How to Web printing paper. Also, in order to prevent too many manipulations from the users, I created 2 extra CSS stylesheets for print, based on an existing one. Basically, I copied 'smallfont' and modified 'font-size: 8pt;' to 'font-size: 5pt;'. Everything worked fine until I got to a report formatted as 'display as hierarchy'.

The arrow icons for the hierarchy are kept the same size, with the result that the printed page does not fit anymore. Since I want to keep it as simple as possible, the only solution I have is trying to find which 'control' within that stylesheet is used for the icons.

Not being familiar at all with CSS, does not help me.

Can someone help me on that one?

I dont' believe there is anything in the CSS for the image. That image is taken from the MIME repository. So if you want something different for that, I would suggest creating a table class to change out the icon w/ a smaller icon.

But you can check the CSS specs by looking the help page outlineing all of the classes in the stylesheet in help.sap.com. Do a search under BW 3.x for CSS or stylesheet and you should find the page. (The link is also somewhere in a previous post in this forum I believe.)

Stephen,

Thanks for the fast response. I already verified the CSS specs on sapnet but did not find anything regarding icons.

For your other suggestion, I am not too familiar with classes. Would you guide me on steps required? Maybe I can have it working!

Take a look at the How To doucment on hiding a column, that will get you started w/ what you will need. If you still have questions after that, let me know.

Hi,

you could also create a copy of the icon mime folder and check in all icons (with reduced size) in this folder. Then you can use the following Web API command to switch the MIME folder:
