Its no walk in the park.  The common technique is to copy sections from the
field into a non-scrolling field in an invisble stack, and print that page
by page.  But getting the cut-off points correct is tricky, involving use of
formattedHeight/width, and a lot of careful work.  I believe 2.3 should have
some enhanced printing features making it easier to do things like this.

put field "example" into URL "file:C:/example.txt"

Or:

ask file "Save file as:"
if it is not empty then put field "my text" into URL ("file:"&it)
