Footnotes:

  1. Microsoft Internet Explorer is required for 'Effects'.
  2. Not all layouts are currently compatible with all games (schemes). In Mozilla Firefox, incompatible layouts should automatically be disabled.
  3. Printing at 96dpi (dots-per-inch) will result in a page that can be directly overlaid on top of your keyboard. However, most likely the diagram will no longer fit within a single Letter- or Legal-sized page. You could try capturing your screen at high resolution and using a paint program to scale the page to a smaller size. Newer browsers also have a 'zoom' feature when browsing or an 'shrink to fit' option when printing, but these don't always work that well. Alternatively, if you're browsing using Internet Explorer, you can select the 'Rotate 90°' effect to display the chart in a vertical orientation which will print in its entirety but across multiple pages. I am interested in hearing feedback from you about this.
    Remember also to enable printing of background colors and images in 'Internet Options' (Internet Explorer) or 'Page Setup' (Firefox) when printing.
