Printing email with reduced image size?

[wannab1]

I receive emails with large images attached and would like to print those emails with the image sized reduced, normally it would all fit on 1 page with text. I know how to reduce everything and print but then the text is unreadable.

Hi,
Not sure but can you highlight the image (right click) & save as....?
Progress from there...

yes I can.

still hoping there is a solution I'm overlooking. We get a lot of emails with large images and it would be a huge time saver to be able to print hit print and it automatically downsize to fit on the page with the text.

I was able to reduce the size of the attached images using the userContent.css file. I printed the message to a .pdf file as a test.

Code: Select all

/* Thunderbird userContent.css */

div.moz-attached-image-container > img.moz-attached-image {
  max-width: 25% !important;
}

Remember to set the toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets preference to true, then restart.

I was able to reduce the size of the first attached image using the error console.

Code: Select all

content.document.querySelectorAll("div.moz-attached-image-container > img.moz-attached-image")[0].setAttribute("width", "25%");

note: use 0 for first attached image, use 1 for second attached image, use 2 for third attached image

You can create keyboard shortcuts that execute custom commands with the tbkeys addon.

There is a "resize the images too large" option in the PrintingTools NG addon.
