Printing one card on multiple pages

[Dan Shafer]

Hershel....

It's not as easy as it should be.

You have two values to deal with. One is the formattedHeight of the  
field. The other is the height of the field.

As explained to me by Chipp Walters as part of my research into  
printing for my eBook on Basic Printing in Rev:

1. Put the text into the field.
2. If the formattedHeight is equal to or less than the height, you're  
done.
3. If not, go to the end of the text and start deleting lines or  
paragraphs or whatever you choose, each time checking formattedHeight  
against height.
4. When they match or formattedHeight is smaller than the field  
height, you can lop off the portion that fit into the field, create a  
new card with that field in a background group, put the remaining  
text into the field and start over again.

Ugly, eh?
