TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Why not simply provide URLs? If they are considering you as a web writer, they have a computer and a browser.
If it is "just" writing that you are displaying (as opposed to web design), why not just include the story or article printed out and properly formatted for paper?

Hello,
Can someone suggest the best method of displaying web pages in a portfolio.
I've done some writing for a couple of sites, and want to include screen
shots of these sites in my portfolio. The web pages are quite wide and don't
lend themselves well to an 8.5 by 11 page. I've taken screen shots and
printed them out on landscape. This looks OK, but a fair bit of the content
on the page gets cut off.
I considered reducing the screen shots to fit on an 8.5 by 11 page but this
would make the type illegible (or tough to read).
Thanks,
James Monaghan
