    Hi,

    Is there a maximum number of pages or attached images that can be posted to a two way PM ? We are currently on page 8, small compared to the main forum posts.

    Just that I did not want to exceed any limit and find all the entries had been lost.

    On the same point, is there any way we can either print out all the text and images or save them in say a html file that we can view offline.
    Could use screenshots but that be a last resort.

    Its that the conversion includes lots of technical data that I would not want to loose.

    thanks.

    All I can think is to use print, then select destination as PDF - that saves a whole webpage text and images. You'll have to use it for each page. I am unsure if there is a limit on a PM, I am sure you are safe with 8 pages.

      I've not heard of there being a limit but that doesn't mean much as I know little about the tech side of things.

      Maybe @wiseowl or @Fat Controller will know more :noidea:

              Evening @ricky101 - no limit on the number of pages as such, but it does help not to have extremely long threads or conversations going back over a long time (years) as this can slow things down for everyone. There is a limit of 12 images per post, be that in PM or on the forum and there is no printing facility that I am aware of, other than PDF as @JWK says
