Added documentation for the TeXwrap element in the <IMG> tag to this document
which appears to document additional elements supported by printing.

\label{Print_Options}

Here you can find some useful tips how to make your printing 
output looking prettier.

\emph{Print output oriented attributes of standard HTML/LON CAPA tags}

\begin{itemize}

\item \ref{TEXsize_attribute} <h1>-<hN> \textbf{TeXsize} attribute
\item \ref{TEXsize_attribute} <basefont> \textbf{TeXsize} attribute
\item \ref{TEXsize_attribute} <font> \textbf{TeXsize} attribute
\item \ref{TEXwidth_attribute} <hr> \textbf{TeXwidth} attribute
\item \ref{TEXwidth_attribute} <table> \textbf{TeXwidth} attribute
\item \ref{TEXDropEmptyColumns_attribute} <table> \textbf{TeXDropEmptyColumns} attribute
\item \ref{TEXwidth_attribute} <td> \textbf{TeXwidth} attribute
\item \ref{TEXwidth_attribute} <th> \textbf{TeXwidth} attribute
\item \ref{IMAGE_TEX_attribute} <img> \textbf{TeXwidth} attribute
\item \ref{IMAGE_TEX_attribute} <img> \textbf{TeXheight} attribute
\item \ref{IMAGE_TEX_attribute} <img> \textbf{TeXwrap} attribute  This attribute
                         controls how the generated LaTeX attempts to wrap
			 text around figures when a horizontal alignment
			 has been requested in the IMG tag.  Unfortunately, \LaTeX is 
			 not really built to do this and there are no known perfect
			 solutions.  This attribute has two possible values:
	\begin{itemize}
	   \item{parbox} - (the default) uses \newline and \parbox to position the
	     image.  This positioning method ensures that the image is placed at
	     the appropriate side of the page, however very little or no text wrapping
	     is attempted.  On the other hand, this method will never place text
	     on top of the image.
	   \item{parpic} - uses the picins package \parpic to attempt to get text to
	     wrap around the image.  This method places the remainder of the text of
	     the paragraph containing the picture to the left or right of the picture.
	     This scheme has two drawbacks:  If the remainder of the paragraph text is
	     insufficient to fill the area to the side of the image, the text from the
	     following paragraph will run through the image,  parpic also seems to not
	     do a good job of honoring the end of the page, and images can spill below
	     the page footers generated by Lon-CAPA.
