HenkBrwr Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 Hi there, For my work I want to make patterns with affinity designer. I studied it for a bit and run into this problem. We use A3 sheets of pattern, the patterns are in real size. When printing we are always 1 cm to big to short. I am looking now to measure the lines but cannot find any option for this. Is there a way to do this? To get the exact measurement that I want. Rgds. Henk Brouwer Quote
Staff DWright Posted December 16, 2019 Staff Posted December 16, 2019 Please can you check the margins on your printer and you document also if your printer has a borderless option please enable the option Quote
HenkBrwr Posted December 16, 2019 Author Posted December 16, 2019 True, the first time I had borders on the print. That helped but still didn't solve it. The base has to be exact the size of the shape that we have in a paper mold and that one we need to digitize in the exact same size. See the photo I attached. Henk Quote
Staff DWright Posted December 17, 2019 Staff Posted December 17, 2019 If you export as a PDF and open this in a viewer are the dimensions correct Quote
HenkBrwr Posted December 17, 2019 Author Posted December 17, 2019 I can only measure after printing with and actual measuring tape henk Quote
Staff DWright Posted December 17, 2019 Staff Posted December 17, 2019 Can you please check the scaling option in your printer app to see if it is set to 100% Quote
