I would like to print a field which contains a nicely formatted user's
guide. The field is small, but contains 8K characters. If I do this:

print bg fld "Explanation" of card "Title Card"

I get the text printed out with my fancy styling, but "snaked" like
a newspaper (multiple columns). I want my help text to come out in
one column. Any hints? Please send responses directly to me, I will
post the "best" back to comp.sys.mac.hypercard.
