The general discussion area has a topic called Book reviews - very helpful, very useful. I find if I click on "Print this topic" I get the topic on my screen in a text-based form that is very easy to search with my browser. This is great if I am looking for a title or author.
The topic is currently 32 pages (screen pages) but only the first 20 pages load into the "Print this Topic" function. This doesn't seem to change even if I change the page I am on when I click on the control.
Is this a system limitation, or is there something the programmer can do to overcome this? Thanks!

Try to set the pages to 100 post/page, maybe that helps? This is not an official piece of advice but something you may try.

Did it - no change on what loads into the "Print this Topic" screen.
Next step is to read the InVision help forums. If it's in the pHp code then we'll need a coder to change that. I actually do this sort of stuff, but not from this end!

Using Invision stuff to dump forum content? Good idea if it works and powers that be approve.

No, I am trying to use the "Print this Topic" button in the upper right corner of all topics to load the entire topic into the print format on the screen. This enables a simple browser-based search.
This works for most topics, but the one I want to search is quite long and does not completely load. This is likely an InVision code limitation but it might be configurable under server pHp options.
Cheers,
