Can I print bookmarks

I think I did it once but don't know how. Is there a way to print a
listt of all Firefox bookmarks?

You can export them as HTML (sorted as you wish) and then print that
html file.. Not sure if there is a "direct" print.

the bookmarks file is already in html format -- its bookmarks.html.
Use your browser, locate that file, and open it. Then print it from
there.

If you want to sort them, then copy and paste them into a spreadsheet
program, sort, and print from there.

That will print the Names but not the locations of the bookmarks. Not
too useful from a recovery standpoint but, perhaps, at least it can give
a picture of the structure of your bookmarks.

UGH! With all of the goofy HTML cruft in a Mozilla bookmarks.html file
that is going to be a nightmare. Especially figuring out some scheme to
parse the structure on to break the Names and Locations into some
sensible Excel database structure.

Once upon a time I created some macros for Word that would strip all of
that junk out of a BM file and leave a simple structure like:

(first line) <Name of bookmark>
(second line) <location link>
(blank line)

etc.

If I can find them I'll post them for anyone interested.

There are some third-party tools out there for bookmarks management that
may be useful for this but I haven't used any in a long time because
none that researched provide good management functions /and/ also are
able to preserve the bookmarks.html structure (so you can manage them in
an external program and them import/use them in a Moz browser while
maintaining the Moz layout structure.).

Don't bother me. I'm living happily ever after.

Pluging that may help.

OPML Support - Adds import/export to the bookmark manager in OPML format
OnlineBookmarkManager Synchronizer - Says it has an exporter. To what
end I do not know.

No clue if either will help you, but I'm sure they'll be useful.
