I am creating my own printing stack. The built-in print commands are not
versatile enough. But my simple gripe is that any stack should have the same
things visible on the screen as what prints when you say: "print card"
unless you specifically tell it to hide or change something on printing. At
least that is my opinion. I was very surprised to find that the default
background for all stacks which appears white is actually gray when printed.
I think it is non-intuitive and should be fixed by RunRev unless there is
some reason for it. If there is a reason I would like to know what it is --
please!
But basically setting the background of any stack you are using to white
solves the problem but doesn't make me feel any better ; )
