Would it be better to combine print css with main css or using another CSS file for print would be better?

Which 开发者_JAVA百科way is prefer ed and why to use for print, another css file with media="print" or @media print {....} in same file?

If you handle a lot of traffic, then a separate file with a separate link would be a better approach...why send that print CSS when so few people will actually need it?

Depends on

• how many styles your original file has
• how many styles will be for printing only
• how much you think the two parts will expand
• how much traffic you get (use another page)
• how likely printing is
• ...

Basically, there's a lot of variables.
