Hi all, I'm trying to make a print page but I don't really understand how to do this..... I've made a link like this http://www.klantenadministratie.nl/dienstverlening/advocaten.aspx?alttemplate=Print (you can see the link at the bottom). On the print template I'm not sure how to load the bodytext from the page.......on the template I've tried it with a macro (which load bodytext), <?UMBRACO_GETITEM field="bodyText"/>, {@nodeName} (just looking if it responds!) but I only get a empty page?! Anyone here with experience in the ?alttemplate feature en knows what I'm doing wrong?? thanks in advance! Chris

.........I'm blond..........I was trying to load bodyText which wasn't there as bodyText because it is/was loaded dynamically through xslt..........so that's why nothing was shown!  greetings, Chris

Hi Chris, Nice thing I learned at the Umbraco course last week is an alternative for the alttemplate querysting parameter. Instead of using the parameter in the url you can also use the folowing url where the last part (print) is you alternative template. Umbraco will automaticly pick that up. http://www.klantenadministratie.nl/dienstverlening/advocaten/print.aspxCheers, Richard

Just a lil warning:
Beware the duplicate content penalty in google (put noindex meta tag on your print template), or alternatively consider clever use of CSS to create a stylesheet that will make the document print-friendly automatically using media="print"
