(I'm not allowed to access FTP or else I would upload the thing). It's quite small, and all it actually is send what ever has been put into the clipboard to the printer. I suppose you can do some limited formatting, but the whole idea is just do dump text to a printer. The catch is that you have to use a HTalk fragment like so click at the loc of cd fld "myField" click at the loc of cd fld "myField" -- click twice on field domenu Copy Text PrintClip -- print it. ...or something like that (can't access my stack obviously, no 2megRAM=no MF! {sniff}). Anyway, it _might_ be able to do what you want, that is, if I understand what you want to do correctly...
