Please be aware that when printing HTML documents from Netscape using a PC running Windows 95, the printed format is affected by your screen resolution. If your screen format is set to less than 1024 horizontal pixels, some of the figures in the HTML documents will be truncated at the printer. Screen resolution in Windows 95 can be changed by choosing "Settings" from the "Start" menu, then "Control Panel" and "Display". Then choose the "Settings" tab and increase your screen resolution. 1024 by 768 or greater will be adequate; 640 by 480 is not. Other platforms and browsers may have similar problems.
