Re: Printing from WebHelp with thumbnail images

I have a solution. Bit of a hack, but here goes:

1) Use the information in my last reply to set a print height for images.
2) After building your project, run a search-and-replace on the .htm files, replacing all instances of...
_thumb_0_58.png"
... with...

Re: Printing from WebHelp with thumbnail images

My project so far has 3 sections: one single-frame movie which is a menu and two movies linked to from the menu.
