Bonjour Jean-Paul,
yes, we can "open pringint fo PDF ..."
Example to "export" card 1 of your stack to a PDF file:
Check "open printing to PDF" in the dictionary to see more options for this command.

Code: Select all
...
## Here you can let the user select a filename for the PDF...
## answer file "Select a filename for the PDF file:"...
## I will use a static filename on the desktop for this example:
put specialfolderpath("desktop") & "/card1_of_my_stack.pdf" into tOutputfile
open printing to pdf tOutputfile
print cd 1
## Or use a repeat loop to print more than one card to a PDF file...
## Done:
close printing
...

Hi Jean-Paul,
It is also worth to have a look at the User Guide, accessible from the Help Menu.
Search for printing.
At around page 385 there is a section for card printing. (LC version 10.0.0 dp
Printing has so many options it may give you an idea how to tweak your printer job.
Kind regards
Bernd

Most operating systems can now convert anything to PDF via the print dialogue.
