The DTML document IS the content.

What you do is that you create an index_html DTML method in the root of the
site (don't ever use DTML Documents).
The index_html includes all the design. From index_html you also include
another DTML Method (you could call it "content" for example) by a <dtml-var
content> tag.

Now, for each document you want to have on your site, you create a folder.
And in each fodler you create a DTML-method called content that contains the
content of the page. Now you can easily create another DTML-method in the
root called "print", that looks like this:

<dtml-var standard_html_header>
<dtml-var content>
<dtml-var standard_html_footer>

Now every page on your site will have a print-view, by just saying
/bla/foo/bar/print instead of /bla/foo/bar/index_html

Tada!
