Printing Synoptic Charts

[Sailfree]

Thanks to everyone that posted useful internet sites for weather forcasts in response to my previous enquiry. Unfortunatly I fell at the first fence. At home using aol I receive the charts but the print command just prints the border and text around the border - no synoptic chart details. I tried again at work and illegally using my work computer for private use- slap wrist- I found that using Netscape Navigator the synoptic chart prints OK!! How can I get aol to do that?
I did wonder about using the cut and paste commands but even if it worked it would be tedious for a few days worth!
Just trying to be a good boy and attempting to document part of my passage planning!
Does anyone out there using aol know a solution.

I use AOL

I use the Met Off 3 day pressure animation.

Each 1 day page has a printable version. I open it and then "save as" to some file or other on my computer. I then open that file in Corel Draw.

Bit long winded - but it works for me.

this may be of limited use as i'm not using aol or netscape but this is how it works on internet explorer v 6.0:

when you have the weather page on the screen, right-click within the chart which is probably embedded within the page as a jpeg file. the menu that appears contains 'print...' which will print out the chart only.

if the weather service you are calling up won't let you do this, try <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.maalla.co.uk/uk-weather/syn.htm>http://www.maalla.co.uk/uk-weather/syn.htm</A>

i just printed off tomorrow's chart. it's going to be nice here but i wouldn't fancy being on the way to the azores right now!

If AOL won't print it just run Netscape, or IE, after you've logged on via AOL.

Right Clicking inside the chart works and then selecting print works fine.
Thanks
