      Description

      I've just had this request from some of our students that have been working through the two current moodle courses here. They'd like a printer-friendly layout for the quiz results / feedback page that will let them print out their quiz answers and teacher feedback while not using up too much paper (they get charged for printing). Any way of perhaps providing a link that re-displays the quiz feedback using a different set of styles with smaller typefaces or something like that to enable this?
