I've seen print transformations of hyperlinks that replace them with numbered footnotes. A sufficiently clever one could use its own pagination and put in "[1] see section X page Y". But honestly that's an obsolete format. If your business can't cope without, use Word. But it ought to be able to. What use is paper nowadays? Who prints stuff out?
- gaius 17y agoWhat people "ought" to do and what they do do are often very different, and you can either pretend that isn't true or you can try to understand it and act accordingly.
- JulianMorrison 17y agoI asked "who uses it", because I can't offhand think of anyone who has to. OK, there are the bosses who can't cope with anything invented since the 1980s and are too high placed to be told to suck it up. There are people in countries too backward to expect a reliable internet connection. And perhaps, some documents required by law? I don't know. "Who uses it" is the question Google should be asking themselves - so they can turn their considerable market and political power towards obsoleting those uses.
