Trying to enlarge pattern ..need help
« on: November 26, 2012, 02:07:59 pm »
Hi all, I am trying to enlarge a pattern to get it to print off 1/2 on one sheet and 1/2 on another. I have not been very successful.
Can someone offer me some advice.
Thanks,
George

I'm with Judy on this.  Been using Rapid resizer for years and it does work great.  As you can guess I paid for it after the trail period.  It is invaluable
Good luck  :)

I do it with Corel (great program for patterns) or convert it to a PDF document and input the desired size wanted and it will print it "tiled".
