Help! (again)
     
In a Hypercard application I am developing I need to print out a form that
fills an entire page. Currently what I do is print two consecutive cards with
the 'No space between cards' option checked in the Print Stack dialog box. This
works fine, so far so good.
     
The problem is Hypercard doesn't seem to remember this setting. If I open the
stack for the first time and print the form it prints as if the box wasn't
checked. If I open the Print Stack dialog box, the box is checked. If I then
hit Cancel, things print fine.
     
The stack is going to be used to display product information to people who are
not necesarily computer oriented, so I want to be able to set the printing
characteristcs, and forget about them. Does anyone have a fix for this? Apple?
Anyone?
     
Thanks for any help,
Scott Storkel
