Does anybody know how to set RW so that it prints exact A4 pages? We like people to open our site and be able to print the content onto 40-50 A4 pages. Or is there perhaps any preset A4 stack onto which I can throw A4 text and images? It would also need to delete the entire header in ASPEN, if that is possible at all?
That would be FANTASTIC!
You definitely won’t find any stack on the market which prints exact A4 pages, but I think you could for sure come close by using the “Printer” stack: Printer Stacks Addon by Weaver's Space
Thanks Matthias, that looks good, indeed. Just wonder if this would print a 50 page or so online book exactly onto A4 paper?
You will have to try it to find out. That said: no content of any web-page does exactly have the A4 (or any other) format. But you can adjust the margin and/or padding of the content in a way that the printed pages look good enough. Ah, in the set of 6 stacks there’s also a “Print Page Break” stack. With that you can “force” the printer to begin a new page.
If you try the stack you don’t need to make real test prints; you can simply choose “Save as PDF” in the printer dialog to create a PDF file from the web-pages which you can then inspect and judge if the layout comes close to A4 or if it needs adjustments…
Thank you very much for your helpful info. We would like to avoid PDF as our content is sheet music and we don’t want people to share it too easily though I am aware that it is impossible to prevent illegal sharing these days….
I didn’t mean that you should offer PDF for download. Just to save paper during the test “prints”, you can - instead of printing the pages - simply create a PDF via the print dialog and view it to assess whether the print function works as you need it to. 
By the way: Every web-page which can be printed on paper can alternatively be saved as a PDF-file via the print-dialog. It will therefore not be possible for you to prevent this anyway.
