The black bars above and below a printed picture were neither in the picture nor in the layout. A PNG or JPEG in a tab of its own is shown by the engine on a viewer page whose background is rgb(14, 14, 14), and Qt prints page backgrounds by default; 0.2.6.1 printed that page. A picture is now taken as itself — drawn onto white, capped at 300 dpi across Letter — and laid out on the printer's paper by the preview, with Size (as large as fits down to 25%), Position (nine squares), Paper (automatic, upright, sideways) and Fill the whole page, which says it cuts the edges off and is never the default. The preview is the PDF that prints, laid out again after each change. Worksheet PDFs and lesson pages get no picture controls and are unchanged. Page backgrounds are no longer printed for lesson pages either, as in Chrome; Blink darkens light text when it does that, so a white-on-black page prints readable grey on white. "Colour" is "Color" in the print interface and the manual. Lab: 135 print checks, now including eight picture layouts measured on the job file CUPS kept — byte-identical to the preview, within 1 point of where asked, no ink anywhere else. Printed from the real session with the pointer: 50% top left, Elmer-66, the same. Not yet on paper. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>

**Wonder Ink** opens the lesson. It is its own application, not the
|
||
browser, and it opens straight into the lesson site.
|
||
|
||
## Using it
|
||
|
||
1. Click **Wonder Ink** on the bar.
|
||
2. Sign in with your Wonder Ink account.
|
||
|
||
A lesson often opens several tabs — the lesson, its video, an activity.
|
||
They appear in a row across the top. Click a tab to move between them,
|
||
and the **×** on a tab to close it.
|
||
|
||
There is no address bar, on purpose. Wonder Ink can take you anywhere
|
||
the lesson needs to go.
|
||
|
||
## Making the lesson bigger or smaller
|
||
|
||
Press **Ctrl** and **+** to make the lesson bigger, **Ctrl** and **−** to
|
||
make it smaller, and **Ctrl** and **0** to go back to normal. You can also
|
||
right-click the lesson and choose **Make the lesson bigger**. When several
|
||
tabs are open, the **− 100% +** buttons at the top right do the same.
|
||
|
||
The size applies to every tab and is remembered next time.
|
||
|
||
## Printing
|
||
|
||
Press **Ctrl** and **P**, click **Print** at the top right, or right-click
|
||
and choose **Print…**. You will see the pages exactly as they will print.
|
||
|
||
* Choose **Only some pages** to print, for example, `2` or `1-3`.
|
||
* Set **Copies** for the number of children.
|
||
* Choose **Black and white** to save color ink.
|
||
|
||
**Printing a picture.** When the tab is a picture on its own, the
|
||
preview also shows **Picture**: choose its **Size** (for example 50%),
|
||
click one of the nine **Position** squares to put it in a corner or the
|
||
middle, and choose **Paper** upright or sideways. The preview changes as
|
||
you choose, and shows exactly what will print. **Fill the whole page**
|
||
makes it cover the paper but cuts off the edges.
|
||
|
||
Click **Print**. Wonder Ink says when the printer has it and goes back to
|
||
the lesson. **Cancel** prints nothing.
|
||
|
||
## Worksheets and colouring pages
|
||
|
||
Click the worksheet link in the lesson. It opens in a new tab, ready to
|
||
read or print. A worksheet's own **−** and **+** at the top of the page
|
||
make it bigger or smaller.
|
||
|
||
Worksheets you download are kept separately from everything else on the
|
||
computer, so they never get mixed up with anything.
|
||
|
||
## When you have finished
|
||
|
||
**Close Wonder Ink at the end of your session.** Closing it signs you
|
||
out, so the next teacher in this room starts with their own account and
|
||
not yours.
