Printing full size copy of drawing

Post by jib2 »

All,
Is their a way to print full size drawings or at least sections of drawings full size.

I am trying to create exact size stencils for air brush painting Vcarved projects. Not even sure if this is possible or I could just be missing somethings very obvious.

As always, thanks for the help and suggestions.

Ok, I found a work around that is:

Select the vectors to be printed and export those vectors to a file and than load that file into a software package such as Affinity Designer or Adobe Illustrator and print it at 100%.

This worked for me with this one. It would be nice to be able to do this right from Vcarve Pro through.

Thanks

It's not really a workaround. Using the PDF export is the correct way to do it.

Thank you for giving me confirmation that I was right! Even if I didn't know it :shock:
