Set HTML page print size, layout and margin


In your HTML page, you can set up the printer specific style sheet by specifying media="print"

media="print"
>
In order to specify the print page size to Letter size and set the proper margins, use the CSS @page rule:

@page
{
    width: 8.5in; height: 11in;                  /* Letter page size is 8.5 inch X 11 inch */
    margin: 0.75in 0.18in 0.75in 0.18in;  /* this affects the margin in the printer settings */
}

If you want to set your print layout to landscape, use following @page rule

@page
{
    -webkit-transform: rotate(-90deg); -moz-transform:rotate(-90deg);
    filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(rotation=3);
    size: landscape;
    width: 8.5in; height: 11in;                  /* Letter page size is 8.5 inch X 11 inch */
    margin: 0.75in 0.18in 0.75in 0.18in;  /* this affects the margin in the printer settings */
}
