For both Address Book and iCal, you can specify the paper size from about a dozen options: US Letter US Legal A4 A5 ROC 16K JB5 B5 #10 Envelope DL Envelope Choukei 3 Envelope (?) Tabloid A3 Tabloid Extra Super B/A3 I'm guessing one of these is close to Hipster 3x5 standards. Anyway, either of the apps will scale the output to fit the page size. What's interesting is that in the course of investigating this very critical issue, I came across 2 new features of Tiger that made me say 'cool' out loud: Apple + Shift + 4 now outputs PNG instead of PDF and Address Book now supports Exchange synchronization So there you go - I learned a lot just by avoiding work.
