With regard to tabAlign, we can deduce that either syntax for generating a PDF from revPrintField will have the same result, since "tabAlign" is not present in revPrintingLibrary.
If, however, we skip revPrintField and print the card directly, we could expect both forms of syntax for generating PDF output to also be identical, but showing the correct tabAlign since we're printing the card rather than reproducing the content via a library that doesn't yet support tabAlign.
If the field content is always known to be less than one page that may be a good option, provided of course the other features beyond revPrintField's automatic pagination are not also used (header and footer, margins, etc.).
Seems simpler to leave everything as it is with just a one-line addition to revPintingLibrary to add support for the tabAlign feature.
Once we pin own the unique cicumstance with Klaus' last column rendering outside the right-hand bounds of the field, I suspect it'll take no more than a second line added to revPrintingLibrary to accommodate that tool.
