I'd really like a way of putting your games in progress into a printable page of miniboards so I could carry them with me. The only way I can do this at the moment is to print them individually, or to use the old print screen, which is not the best. I've tried cutting and pasting the miniboards to a Word document, but the boards get lost in the transition.

Yes, it works, although you don't get to select which games. You have to go to your profile, then into your public games, then print in landscape view. Does that meet your needs?
Originally posted by BLReidI got 6 games per page, and the full board with pieces. Are you sure you used landscape? I did this from the public games page, by selecting print from the browser's file menu. It should print out roughly as you see it, like you can print any web page. I'm using Internet Explorer, so I don't know if that makes a difference?

which is a freeware program - set it to print a rectangular area and you can get 6 boards on like this: http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/8549/chessx6oi1.jpg
