Regarding the Transparent attribute for print fields: is there any reason not to ALWAYS use this? I can see why you'd want it if you were placing text over a graphical background image. That's probably a major reason why it was added.
But doesn't it work the same way over a plain background? So when would you NOT want to use transparent? I think I'm missing something.

[BR_forum] Transparent attribute on PRINT FIELDS
sometimes you might want to let people choose their own background image, in which case you may want the text to force the color of it's background so you can always read it no matter the dynamic background... maybe...

When you want to Highlight something (as in a highlighter).

Oh yes, I can see that. I guess for almost all purposes, I'll use the T attribute. Then I don't have to worry about what I'm using as a background image, unless my text might not be visible easily on it.
