| | Print Preview How can I get a print preview of an e-mail so I can tell which pages I want to print? There is print preview in the browser window but none in the mail application. I am using Windows Live Mail on a computer using VISTA Home Premium with SP/1 -- Alfred1939 |

| | Re: Print Preview That's not an option in WLM. If you need to do this a lot and want to save ink and paper, an option would be to install a PDF creation utility. These typically install a PDF printer. You then select the PDF printer when you print the e-mail and a PDF file is created instead of the real printer being used. You can then open the PDF in the free Acrobat Reader and select the pages to print. There are a number of freeware/shareware PDF creation utilities. I use PDF995 and it works OK for the few occasions that I need to create a simple PDF. -- Mike - http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/techhelp.htm "Alfred1939" <Alfred1939@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:3EFAF4A3-3F7F-4507-9B34-21A0A5FFF56F@xxxxxx Quote: > How can I get a print preview of an e-mail so I can tell which pages I > want > to print?

| | Re: Print Preview Thanks all. It's too bad this is not an option in WLM. Everyone else in the world has it. I have used the techniques that you suggest but was looking to see what WLM would offer. Thanks again. -- Alfred1939 "D.
