Re: Blank page at the top of pdf output
I guess I should have said that this is on OSX (10.7.5) with LC 6.5.2 in case that makes a difference.

The card rect is the same as the printPaperRectangle minus the printMargins so everything sits on the page nicely. If I substantially decrease the size of the card then the blank page disappears but my output is not appropriately positioned on the page. Any ideas on what I need to do to get it to work without the blank page? Terry...

Re: Blank page at the top of pdf output
OK - I switched syntax from... print card cardNum to print card cardNum into cardRect with a print break between each page and the blank page has gone. Terry...

Not necessarily. I just thought if you did, and it was at the top of a loop, it would print a blank page before the rest of the content. But you don't, so that's not it. The only other thing I can think of is that you're accidentally printing a blank card or something, but I suppose you've checked for that. If you do decide to scale the printout as a workaround, then you could use print break if you need to force each card to its own page. Or maybe print to PDF has a glitch. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
