AW: any secrets printing only a section from a card?
Yes, that's my experience too. I also tested the printScale without success. I now, created a separate print stack, copied all objects to that card and print the whole card.

This might be an older issue. I have been struggling with that myself, in context of producing PDFs, in version 7. Only printing the full card works reliably. Any other option produces a different output but not the desired one, at least not reliably. On 10 Apr 2017, at 12:06, Tiemo Hollmann TB via use-livecode wrote: > Hello, > > LC 8.1.4, Win 10.

Re: any secrets printing only a section from a card?
A couple of things you can try. You can print into a specified "pageRect". See the dictionary. You can also set the "printScale" to a value other than 1. See the dictionary.

any secrets printing only a section from a card?
Hello, LC 8.1.4, Win 10. (Same with LC 6-9) When printing a whole card with just "print card" everything of the card is being printed fine, only stretched to the papersize. But when trying to print only a part of the card by "print card from myLeftTop to myRightBottom into page Rect" I never get the wanted rectangle being printed into the pageRect. It is always clipped somewhere and only a small part of the wanted rectangle is being printed. I have also tried to set the printpapersize and printmargins and fiddled around with different rectangle sizes, but didn't got the wanted section. Are there any secret conversion factors, when printing "from to"?
