Google Docs now with enhanced print capability

With the holidays, the new year, CES, etc, its been a distracting and busy time, so this one got by me for a few weeks but still deserves mention. In an important development in the world of web-based apps, Google (NASDAQ GOOG) Docs has added new print-related enhancements, including granting user control over margins, page numbers and paper sizes -- really just the basics as far as printing needs, but a big improvement nonetheless. (See "Browser App Printing" for my analysis as of last September.)

In "Documents Dress Up and Print Out" Google engineer David Kuettel describes the improvements and the rationale behind them. The next step Id hope for is better printing in Google Presentations, which lags far behind its Office counterpart. (see "Web-based Application Printing -- Google Presentations".)
