Very informative post. I’ve found your blog via Google and I’m really glad about the information you provide in your articles. Btw your sites layout is really messed up on the Kmelon browser. Would be great if you could fix that. Anyhow keep up the good work!

if the print preview is in fact generated by IE7 instead of IE6, then I do think that printing is also handled by IE7. I never checked, though.

I’m trying to think back here… I was doing quite a bit of tweaking (for all of the browsers) throughout the process and don’t remember specifically seeing (or not) differences between the two…

I did take it through to actually printing (not just previewing) but it sounds like you’re thinking that IE7 would be (potentially) picking up that duty as well?

Hi,

did you find any differences in the print preview rendering between IE6 and IE7 on a single machine? As noted at the end of my post (you’re referring to), I suspect that print preview isn’t actually that of IE6, but that of IE7. I suspect so because the web-site I was trying to make appear and print the same in IE 6&7, actually did look absolutely the same in print preview for both IEs, without any effort on my side.

What about your case?
