Layout breaks if printer can't handle zero margins.

[MaelwysSC113]

Everything looks fine in the card previewer and the generated page, but whenever you go to print them in your browser they are too wide for the card. Each card will only contain the first 4 stats (STR, DEX, CON, INT) and leave off the last 2 (WIS, CHA).

Editor Preview:

Generated Cards Tab:

Print Preview (can confirm they they actually print like this):

Only workaround I could find is to print to PDF, then open the PDF file and print from there, but then the card backs are out of alignment vertically

I can't reproduce this. What is your page size (e.g., A4 or US Letter) in the generator and in the Print Preview?

[MaelwysSC113]

US Letter, and I'm using Chrome

Here's the input I was using:

subtitle | Medium beast, unaligned
rule
property | AC: | 13 (Natural armor) | Speed: | 40 ft
property | HP: | 11 (2d8+2) | CR: | 1/4 (50 XP)
rule
dndstats | 12 | 15 | 12 | 3 | 12 | 6
rule
property | Skills: | Perception +3, Stealth +4
property | Senses: | Psv Percptn 13
property | Traits: | Keen Hearing & Smell (ADV on WIS checks for hearing/smell), Pack Tactics (ADV on atk roll if ally w/in 5 ft)
fill | 2
section | Actions
description | Bite | Melee Atk: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft, one target. Hit: 2d4+2 (pierce). If the target is a creature, it must make a DC 11 STRsave or be knocked prone

Still can't reproduce it. I suspect the reason is that the printer adds margins to the page*, thereby shrinking the content. Can you try changing the page margins in the printer settings?

*The page with the cards is generated such that it exactly fits the paper, and the page margins are set to zero. If the printer refuses to use zero margins, the layout will break.

I may just be being dumb in a way I'm not catching for some reason, but it still happens if I set the margins to "None"

I have tried to explain it above - your printer probably requires some minimal margins and silently modifies you margin setting, thereby breaking the layout.

I'm not sure how to solve this. For now, printing to PDF and then playing around with print settings when printing the PDF is probably your best option. Note also that regular printers are usually not very precise, the front and back sides may be shifted by 1-2mm even if you get the settings right.
