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. Any other ideas?
