I tried printing a card from the previous project [the one you'd helped me
with the cloning problem] and had the same problem.  This is a recent
problem.  I printed successfully from both projects until a couple of days
ago.  I haven't tested printing with another printer or on a different
computer/platform since the hang up probem started.  I don't know how to
set things to print to a pdf file.  My printer driver (all I get with the
'answer printer' command) has very little control. (It's an Epson 740i and
I can't even select black and white).  The page setup only appears to be
available when printing fields.  Printing cards is not mentioned in the
docs under 'revShowPrintDialog'.  I don't have any problem printing from
other apps, though most of them are classic, and the dialog is much better
(IMHO).
