SUMMARY
When Cardfile prints cards, it calculates the number of cards per page based on the physical height of the printer page and the print height of the card plus the character print height, using the following formula:

  Cards per page = Physical height / (card print height + character print height) After Cardfile has printed this number of cards, it sends a formfeed to the printer using the following function:

  Escape(hDC,NEWFRAME,0,(LPSTR)0,(LPSTR)0)

MORE INFORMATION
If you are using 2 1/6-inch by 4-inch continuous-form cards, the formfeed doesn't terminate on the upper edge of a card. It terminates at a location that corresponds to the page height asspecified in the printer driver. None of the current printer drivers supplied with Windows has a page height that is appropriate for use with the continuous-form cards.
