Printing issue
I have both a stack and it's standalone on the same machine. On a certain card I have a bunch of controls.
If I print that card from the stack, I get a certain (and desired) layout of the controls on the card. But if I do the exact same thing to the same printer from the standalone, the placement of those controls moves dramatically. Anyone ever see this?

Re: Printing issue
Not exactly. I'm not sure what's going on but I'd try looking at whether relative/absolute positioning might be involved.
I'm presuming you aren't using Windows, where print metrics are different to screen (see "format for printing" stack property).

WINDOWS? Mmmph, Ha ha. AAH HAHAHA.
No.
It seems odd to me that a stack with an attached engine could work so differently from a stack with an unattached engine. I tried this on two different printers, albeit both were HP types.

I have never used responsive layout, if that matters.

Re: Printing issue
Are all your objects/controls on the card you want to print locked?
Re: Printing issue
Richmond.
Do you mean are their locations locked?
No, but how would that matter?
