I do see the pages on the screen. And on my 21 inches screen, I can even read them. But to USE them, I need to print them. And here I fail. a) one can print only one page at a time. b) the page of the almanach (or any other book) occupies only about 1/4 of the screen. The rest is taken by what I call "the frame". It consists of various inscriptions like "Mystic seaport. The museum of America and Sea" Libraries, Nautical Almanac - Great Britain" and so on. These inscriptions (in hudge font) take 70% of the screen. When I print it prints MY COMPUTER SCREEN, not the actual page of the almanach. As a result I can read the printout (on a standard paper format) only with a magnifying glass. This has nothing to do with my browser. I have Netscape, Mozilla and Geleon. It has to do with the way it is posted. Why did not they use a normal pdf format, for example? Alex.
