I came across this plugin that is great for people like myself that:
a) are easily distracted
b) are “small type” challenged
c) like to print out and read
d) hate to waste paper and ink printing out badly formatted web pages

note: it works on both IE and Firefox
From the website:
Readability is a simple tool that makes reading on the Web more enjoyable by removing the clutter around what you’re reading.”

For several years, I’ve been after my friend, Roger C. Parker, to offer a compilation of his popular Guerrilla Marketing & Design newsletters.

Each issue contains a surprising amount of marketing, copywriting, and design ideas and implementation details. Roger formatted his newsletters as an attractive, easy-to-read, one-page, (front-and-back) PDFs.

Roger’s finally combined 68 of his best newsletters into single file, and added a detailed table of contents. He’s also thrown in copies of all his Design to Sell newsletters.
