printing with ubuntu

  1. 2012-02-05 05:50:39 PST
    program is working well on ubuntu 10.10 with one minor exception. there is a cached craigslist ad in the program i'd like to print that has since been deleted online. if i attempt to print the ad to pdf, the format is a mess and then only one page "prints". i have not had issues of any kind with "printing" to pdf except for this instance. any suggestions? thanks!

    Printing a article to PDF works fine for me, maybe that's an issue with this specific page. Printing is done via XULRunner which is used by RSSOwl to display the articles so very likely this is a XULRunner bug. Maybe you can find this file in Google's Cache https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Cache or in archive.org.

    thank you for the reply. I am familiar with web caches and use a chrome plugin that searches 7 top cache sites however craigslist is notorious for blocking crawlers. there are no cached listings via the web which is why i had hoped to print the data that is saved locally in rssowl. the listing as saved in rssowl still comes up perfectly but just fails to print properly. bummer that it won't work but not that big of a deal. thanks again for your response. :)
