I have no problems with HyperCard 2.0, SE, System 7.0b4, StyleWriter.
If you want to print smaller than full size cards, you *first* have to
select the output scaling in the Page Setup dialog to, e.g., 60%. Then
HYperCard will use this scaling in the page layout and the printing. I print
10 cards on a page with, I think, 40% scaling. This gives very readible
results (remember, 360 dpi!) and it saves a lot of paper.
