printMargins?

Oops! This might be a duplicate message. Hope not!

In preparation for a move to Revolution, I'm re-writing my HyperCard 
Reports (9 to 5 software) in hyperTalk. I'm setting up stacks the 
size of a standard sheet of 8.5 X 11 sheet of paper, moving data in 
and out of fields, moving fields around and so on.

As far as I can tell, the smallest margins hyperCard can manage are 
about 5/8 inch on the left and 9/16" on the right, even with 
printmargins set to 0,0,0,0. My printer will allow much smaller 
margins using other applications. This is an insurmountable obstacle. 
I'm trying to print on a government form with narrow right and left 
margins.

What kind of print margins can I expect in Revolution, using the same 
procedure? I know I could fire it up and try. I've bought it, but it 
is still entirely unfamiliar. A quick answer would give me a head 
start.

Thanks in advance.
