HOL Printing lists
 
Is there a way I can Print a list of a couple of specific lists from HOL, I was always an RPG/Adventure Game player on the Amiga.

I have done an RPG list and an Adventure game list but I would like to print these lists of as a Printable version, or a file I can store , can this be done at all ?

Thanks.

You can print the pages as a PDF and join them. It isn't really pretty, but maybe good enough for your purpose?

Have a look : http://www.sendspace.com/file/01wy4p

LOL, I forgot I had a print as PDF, just saved the complete adventure file listing in one go. I never ever use that option so I overlooked it.

I printed the individual pages and joined them later. Not sure if there's a 'all results' option... never seen that either ;)

I am on a Mac when I select Print from the file menu I have a PDF option does the job in one click :)

Hmm, I meant that I can only convert 100 results at one time to a PDF... if you know a way to print all results, please let me know :)

Yes, sorry I realised it did do only the first 100 when I looked at one of the lists I did, sorry to to mislead you.

No worries about that :) Just thought I missed a way to do it easier here. Would be really handy to have a 'list all' option in the advanced search though.

A bit of a workaround for Firefox/Chrome users on PC is to merge the different pages using an add-on called PageZipper, and then making a PDF. Not entirely elegant as the "header" and "footer" of each page after the first one will be included, but you can chop those bits out to make the list flow better using a PDF editor if you want to make the layout neater. Anyway, it'll save you the trouble of saving out multiple PDFs and then having to merge them into a single PDF.

Edit: Re-Pagination and AutoPager are other autopager add-ons for Firefox/Chrome users on PC.

That looks good if you use a MS driven PC, I use a Mac.

Try AutoPagerize for Safari/Firefox/Chrome then......seems to be a PageZipper clone looking at it on the pimpmysafari website (see HERE).
