How to make a HTML Page in A4 paper size page(s)?

Question

Is it possible to make a HTML page behave, for example, like a A4-sized page in MS Word?

Essentially, I want to be able to show the HTML page in the browser, and out

Answer 1

I've used HTML to generate reports which print-out correctly at real sizes on real paper.

If you carefully use mm as your units in the CSS file you should be OK, at least for single pages. People can screw you up by changing the print zoom in their browser, though.

I seem to remember everything I was doing was single page, so I didn't have to worry about pagination - that might be much harder.
