LiveJournal copy & paste

[SFEnnisSF]

I like to copy & paste my fan fiction into word documents and then print them out and read them.

I've just tried to copy & paste some more fan fic to read and Live Journal suddenly won't let me!    Anybody else experiencing this?  Is there a way around this?

Help!!  I need Fan Fiction for the plane ride to Boston!

I've had that problem with a few stories on LJ when trying to quote in comments, but not all stories... I'm not sure what the problem is. If worse comes to worse, you could maybe email authors and have them email you the word document?

Click on the author's name on LJ at the top of the page, it will take you to another page with a different format. You'll be able to copy and paste from there. On that page, chapters are ordered from top to bottom, beginning with the newest chapter posted, so if you want to copy older chapters, scroll down. I have a nice flight!

You need to go back to the old LJ layout that we all had before LJ changed it's layout to 'Horizon' at the beginning of September.

A laser printer is cheaper, in the long run, than an inkjet...but you probably aren't in the market for a new printer.

I also think you could save a story in a Word document and probably reformat it to make it shorter: smaller margins and font, for example. You can also save the Word file on an external device (thumb drive, flash drive) and take somewhere like Kinko's or Staples to be printed. They'll charge you per page, of course, but it still might be cheaper than the cost of an ink cartridge.

I have an inkjet and my dad turned me on to CHEAP (new) cartridges from eBay. They're all made in China, of course, but as far as I can tell, they are legitimate equivalents, even though the brand manufacturer doesn't like it. I buy them in bulk, ten black and ten color at a time, because they cost only TEN PERCENT of the brand name (at least for my old Epson 777i). Every now and then my red lights go on to tell me the cartridge is empty when it really isn't (sneaky ol' Epson), but there is a nifty little device that allows me to reset the cartridge, and I can continue without changing cartridges. I can't imagine ever going back to the $30 cartridges!
