I have tested it with the brand new Silverlight 3 beta version. Printing from Firefox does not show the content of the silverlight plug-in. Using Flash i can embed the Flash plug-in into my html page and print the page inclusive the Flash part (eg. some graphics)
with the browsers print functinality. Are there plans to do this in the Silverlight 3 production version? Thx a lot for your answers in advance.
I think with the 3.0 release you can do better than print screen - all the pieces are there to write MS Office documents. Costs more development time but in many cases the pay off for the user will be very beneficial.

The print preview in Firefox doesn't show any of my Silverlight content. Is there a way to print Silverlight content from Firefox?
Not so much a Silverlight question, but I was also wondering if there's a way to print horizontal overflow without using the 'shrink to fit' option?
Thanks
