Printing from CHM is notoriously difficult. What happens is that the document is built on the fly and many references to things like CSS and suchlike are lost in translation.

The best approach to printing from CHM is to create a PDF of what you want, then add it as baggage and point to the baggage file when print is desired.

What happens if you say "yes"?

This script message appears twice, when i click on "Yes" and then the PDF gets generated.Same thing happens when i click on the No button.

The problem is CHM is used by the end user and we donot want this script message to appear.

Like i said, there are 12 topics, I get this message for only 3 topics. The PDF gets generated without any script error for remaining 9 topics.
