That's a good point, actually. In my setup, the transparent background
image covers the entire rectangle of the card. Only the center area
prints double. The image is just a series of grids drawn with HC's paint
tools. Text goes inside the grid. Some of the text is okay, some isn't.
Some lines of text print fine in their entirety, some fuzz up in the
center only.
In this case, MC would be taking a snapshot of the whole card, but only
the text inside one particular area seems to be affected. Seems like all
the text would be overprinted in this situation, but it isn't.
