Yes, you can create the card and all the objects necessary on it. Check out
the create card command, and the create field command in the Transcript
dictionary. You might want to set the geometry on the objects by setting
properties on templateObjects, for example the templateField. If you want a
standard combination of objects on every card, group them and place the
group onto the card.
Hope this helps. Post again if this isn't clear or you have other related
questions.
Cheers,
Michael
