Layout and print software hosted on my server

[Milo]

Hi all,
I am looking for software, either free or for purchase, that can be used to layout and print text, but that is hosted on my site. Basically, I make invitations and want to offer my visitors a method of typing in their text, choosing fonts types and colours, formatting the text (paragraphs, etc) and then being able to print this out from my website. Also the ability to save their file on my site would be great. right now I've only been able to get a quote to have this software made from scratch, but was hoping to purchase or download something out of the box. I would be happy if there was something even close, even if it doesn't offer all this functionality, only some.
Anyone found something like this?
Thanks in advance.

Just find a javascript WYSIWYG Editor that allows formatting contents of textarea html tag. There are multiple free.

Sample:
Web Software Components: WYSIWYG Editors at htmlArea.com


Then build a form to submit that textarea input value and use a php to save that to a file. That's it.

Can you not just use

http://docs.google.com

it allows you to share docs etc as well?

I think there are a number of options to integrate with your own web site?

I recall, years ago, there was a program called HAMCARDS, that allowed you to have E-cards on your website that visitors could customize and send to other people. I don't know if it is still available or not.

Just an idea.

Hey, is this something you may be able to use?
Greeting Card Pro -- eCard Software and Internet Greeting Card Server Software

If it is close to what you need, just google ecard software.

Good luck!

Hi Guys,
thanks for the info. I was hoping for an all in one solution. I did find a WYSIWYG editor, but its a bit tricky with my expertise to finish of the end product ie. make it so that the output info can be printed. I'll keep on looking though. Thanks again for the feedback guys.
