change agenda font size

10 years 2 months ago
#54928
Hi all, my club is looking for a way to make the font on our ToastHost agendas just a little smaller. I would like it to happen automatically, without our members having to change their print settings. Since we have a bunch of new members coming in, we want to keep all the little transitions of who's got the podium in the agenda.

I'm familiar with HTML and CSS -- is there a way to use CSS to change the font size just for the printed agendas? I can see they're already using a different output, and probably a different stylesheet.

What I've already tried:
- Looking through the settings
- Designing a new header and template that removed most of a page of cruft

Thanks, Wyn

Did you try doing the print setting to fit on one page and let the software reduce everything?
Thank you,

Brian, thanks for the quick response!

I just did two test prints -- one with shrink on, one off. In my case, it made very little difference. Standard spills over by 3 lines, shrunken by 2 lines. I guess the shrink setting won't solve this for our club. :(

Last time I forgot to mention that I have also already optimized our text to be only 1 line long for everything in our test case.

Perhaps printed agenda font size control should become a feature request?

Hi Steve! Me again :) I found this thread looking for how to make the agenda font smaller, so it can be printed on one page straight out of the web browser. I have about 3 items that are on the 2nd page. Any suggestions would be appreciated :)

Use your browser print controls to adjust margin and scale the page to adjust font size.

It is easy in IE and Edge, not as easy in Chrome... not sure about FF.
