Anyone know of a good way to print an entire logbook from Uwatec's SmartTrak software? I have my entire logbook in the software, and it occurred to me that it might be handy to have a hard copy to take with me on trips to foreign destinations where the boat captains don't already know me. :)

That's when I first investigated the printing features. Ewww. I haven't played with it too much, but it looks like I can print an incredibly ugly table of all my dives, or I can print a mediocre single page entry of SOME info with a nice profile graphic, at least, of ONE dive. I REALLY don't want to print out all my dives, one print at a time, one page at a time, though. Is there an option in there somewhere to print out a decently-formatted full-blown logbook?

I've seen other software out there that brags of beautiful log printouts, but I'd really rather avoid having to purchase another piece of software just to get a decent print if there's any way to do it natively.
 
I hate to say it, but none of the native software from Uwatec is very good. Sadly, you would need a third party tool to get the results you want.

Yeah, pretty much the conclusion I had come to.

Diving Log's prints look GREAT (using some third-party report formats). I went ahead and bought it.

But I wish I had known how spotty the import from SmartTrak was. I'm going to have to reinput a LOT of data to make it useable...
