Hello

I like to Know which settings do I need to Export a PDF File in Life Scale.

I want to print an Image to be used as a stencil for drawing, 18" x 24" are the stencil Measurements.

Any help with the Info Provided will be appreciated

Hey Vic

I did this by creating a rectangle the size of the “paper” the printer was going to use then position the geometry in it, taking into account margin limitations.

Then at export i set the paper size there also and preserve units.

There may be a couple more settings to watch for to maintain proportions. I’ll look more in a bit when i get home

“”””” Then at export i set the paper size there also and preserve units.”””””

I forgot to put first:

At export, select all geometry “AND” rectangle you created at paper size, then in export dialogue, be sure “selected only” is chosen……

The goal here is to prevent the “printer” from doing any type of scaling to make the print “fit”

Then a 5 inch line prints at 5 inches

Then continue previous

Hi vic, just to give you a visual -

Do you have units set in MOI to inches? That's under Options dialog > General > Unit system.

Then in the PDF export options, the settings you need to adjust are in the top half of the dialog:
