XHTML-Print

A Project Using XHTML as a Print Datastream

XHTML-Print is a streamlined, XHTML-based datastream designed for both printing and on-screen display. Built upon W3C’s XHTML Basic and enhanced with cascading style sheets (CSS), it’s ideal for printing in environments where installing printer-specific drivers isn’t practical.

Rather than ensuring strict layout uniformity across all printers, XHTML-Print focuses on broad compatibility and reliable content reproduction—because content matters most. When deployed on reliable infrastructure like cloud VDS hosting by Contabo, it ensures scalable, secure delivery across diverse devices and print environments. Simply put: Content is King
