Hi Bob, Well that was very odd. I retrieved the name of the printer. It told me it was "Brother..." So, I tried to print again. This time it worked flawlessly without any dialogs whatsoever. Go figure. The problem has somehow solved itself. I guess Livecode just needed a reminder kick in the

Hi Rick. Since this worked for me and it isn't for you, a bit of troubleshooting is called for. In the help stack, there is a Properties subset in the left pane. Click that then search for Print. You will get all the properties that printing uses. I believe there is a property for the current

Eh? What is that??? This only happens when I try to print from Livecode. Is this a Preference in Livecode for Mac OS X somewhere? My default printer is set as a "Brother" shared printer over the network. Thanks, Rick On Feb 25, 2011, at 2:30 PM, J. Landman Gay wrote: > On 2/25/11 12:38 PM, B

I just did this with and without the print dialog and open for printing. It printed to my default printer. I did notice however that there is no "fit to page" in the Page Setup. THAT would be a nice feature addition, especially since it's a darned good bet that a card on today's modern monitor

Hi Jacqueline, I tried excluding the "with dialog" for open print. Doesn't work with out bringing up "Preview" first. "Print this card" creates a .pdf file, and automatically opens "Preview". I want to skip that step entirely and just have the card go directly to the printer without stopping.
