Hi!

I like the study my script comfortable in the arm chair.
When I print it directly with Rev, I need a lot of paper.
Therefore I copy it into a texteditor and print it with two columns on a sheet.

Is there any economical way in Rev?

You can create a printing template stack that will do it, though it will take some work. Put two fields on the template card, one for each of the columns. Put your script text into both of the column fields, then use the pageHeights function (for either field, they will be the same) to find out how many pages it will take. Your actual printout will take half as many pages, since you will move every other "page" to the second column.

Once you know the pageheights, write a loop that sets the scroll of the first field to the first line of the pageheights, and sets the scroll of the second field to the second line of the pageheights. Print the card. Then repeat, setting the first field's scroll to the third line of the pageheights and the second field's scroll to the fourth line. Continue doing that until all the text is printed.

There is more info on printing scrolling fields in the User Guide on page 306: 9.8.3 Working with Scrolling Fields when Layout Printing.
