    Maybe your theme has a custom way to handle how it looks like on print – which would need to be tackled a theme level. Have you talked to your themes vendors/ authors about this?

    Not yet. From what I been reading I would need to use a custom print.css and create this, all the plugin I tested print a pdf basic page not the look or design of my site.

    By default, printing a website shouldn’t look any different from what you see on a screen. As your website looks different when being printed, it is that which makes me think your theme already uses a print.css file.

    I guess there’s no support then. Is there any documentation for this print stuff?

    Not really. I guess I will have to create a custom print.css for it. That should fix it, i seen plugin that have a click to print and convert the html to pdf and print exactly, i think that would work, is there any of that you know?

    It’s not necessarily a “print.css” file, nowadays you can see CSS Media Queries to handle print styles.
