I'm replying to my own message as a catch-all for the responses that 
came in overnight.

Thanks everybody for the feedback and ideas. A few specific replies:

- I'm aware of (but far from an expert with) CSS and its specific 
accommodations for alternative output media, but it would have to be an 
extraordinary case in which I mirrored a page's HTML and other 
resources, including stylesheets, so that I could fix the CSS (while 
learning how to do so)!

- The sliced text line problem is definitely happening in Firefox 
2.0.10.

- I think creating a raster page or document image and manipulating it 
with GIMP is a bit more work that I'm willing to carry out.

- I'll try the PDF route.

- I'll also try Opera. I've experimented with it in the past and my 
recollection was that it's a techy dream, with bazillions of 
configurable options.


Thanks again.
