Newbie - Ask print and filename
Is there a documented (or undocumented) procedure to invoke the system printer dialog in Windoze along with specifying a region to print? I am looking for something like: print this card from x,y to x2,y2 with answer printer ... to allow the user to select which printer to use. As a side note, anyone ever come across a way of getting the list of available printers on a Windoze system with or without a DLL. As a second side note (wheels turning as I type), is it possible to print multiple regions simultaneously on a single page. Thanks for any suggestions. John J.

Newbie bounding box print issue
Playing around with printing in MetaCard 2.4 on Win 2K I'm seeing an anomaly when printing a region (any region) of a card. Along the bottom and right edges of the printed region a border or bounding box about 2 pixels wide is being printed. The border does not appear along the left or top edges of the print region. The color is that of the Background color assigned to the stack. The printer is a color postscript Xerox and I just downloaded the latest drivers. The behavior is the same with old and new drivers. Printing to a Postscript file and converting the resulting Postscript to PDF with Acrobat yields the same results. Is this normal behavior? Is this something I can "turn off" or compensate for in some manner? Thanks for any suggestions. John J.
