Getting a Background to showup on Print

[rtvenge]

I have a PNG that has white text in it, so I need to put a background color on the img. However, it seems that the user stylesheet in your brwser overrides all of the backgrounds in your CSS on print. Does anyone know a way around this?

I’ve tried this so far:

Code:

.printElement { display: block; width: 100%; background-color: red !important; }

The server is creating the image, so I can’t put the background in the image.

Thanks!

I haven’t found how to make background images print.

Have you tried creating a Print CSS file? It’s worth a try…

After much searching, I’ve found nothing. The browser strips out backgrounds by default and there isn’t a way to override it.
