Printing

Novice questions, the answers to which have been probably
documented/discussed/promulgated extensively, but which I cannot find.  I
note there has been recent discussion concerning the "pagerect" property.

I want to print a field.  I don't seem to be able to "print a field" or any
configuration thereof (my HC background), documentation stating that I can
print a card(s) or a stack(s).  Do I have to make the field the size of the
card that I want to print without any other objects?  Hide objects before I
print?   A scrolling field only prints the "visible" field in the card
screen when "print card" is evoked.

I want to append different field contents into a single print container,
hopefully with style/font/alignment attached, and print that container with
assigned printmargins.

Suggestions appreciated.

Nice would be to print a "watermark" behind this text (self-generated
watermark).
