Wow ok, cool i like your spring gif! It was kind of insulting but I guess in my stupidity I deserve that!!!! LOL. Live and learn, RIGHT? I have tried everything from changing it to PDF to what ever. I don’t know what TILED is and as for as going to poster that would make it multiple pages. I don’t understand how that would help. Can you maybe give me more info? I print out schematics for fire trucks weekly to fix electrical problems on fire trucks and ambulances and they are very big diagrams. Well never mind. I guess I will figure it out. Tiled which I think you mean TILE format? Is that correct? Thanks, Rob.

I have check into tile format and I don’t see how that will reshape the picture back into aspect ratio. But it’s all good, I can calculate the distorted pics I have and can come up with a useable diagram that I can use. Thank you for the help. Rob.Comment

You can print a large format document, such as a poster or banner, by splitting the page across multiple sheets of paper (called "tiling"). The tiling option calculates how many sheets of paper are needed. You can adjust the size of the original to best fit the paper and specify how much each "tile" overlaps. You can then piece together the tiles.
Adobe Reader 9 or earlier: Adobe Reader 9 or earlier do not offer the tiling option. So if you have a template thats say bigger than an A4 sheet of paper use the tiled functionComment

The problem is you have asked a question and not provided a sample of what you are trying to print so we are in the dark, your template may or may not be distorted who knows until we see it. The answers you are getting are based on known problems.Originally posted by RobN View PostComment

Ok I understand what your saying, not trying to cause any waves out here I think all you guys are great and are a vast amount of knowledge! If you read back in my post I was talking about a basket weave coil jig that is posted out here. My post 58 explains what I wanted and Waltr (post 59) explains he has ran across the same problem. Not no big deal. I will figure it out.
Thank you for your input though your just tryin to help. Sorry if it got all messed up. I am going to use my 28ga. Teflon wire to make a basket weave coil and try to find a larger diameter of teflon wire to make a spiral coil with to lower the resistance. Thanks to all, Rob. I like your spring gif and saved it. Hope you don’t have a Patton on it. Lol.Comment

Ok does this look round or prints distorted on A4 sheet?Comment

No, not at all, 7 inch outside round, 6 inch inside round, 1/2 inch jig width. Does that sound right (you may be metric) I thought they was making them 8 inch? But at least it’s round. Thanks I can work with that. I’m on my IPad right now my lap top is at my work and I saved the instructions on my lap top. Just a stupid question what diameter are they building them at? 8 inch or 7 inch (metric measurements are fine)? Thanks a lot. Been trying to get a round version of this for over a month. Thanks!!!!Comment

It looks like you have 20cm wrote on there ,correct? 20cm is almost 8 inches, but when I print it out it came out to be exactly 7 inch OD. Although it’s round and not oval it still didn’t print out to be 20 cm on my end. So it depends where you live on what you get when you try to print it out.
So I’m guessing 20 cm OD would make it 18 cm ID with a 20mm jig width? Sorry to be a pest but here in the states this forum comes out distorted. It’s a big world and what you send is not necessarily what everybody gets. Big difference from sending to United States to wherever. Just trying to make you all understand that. I have to deal with it ever day at work because there is very little stuff made in the United States and manufactures send me diagrams all the time that don’t match what I’m working on. It seems like when it crosses a ocean it gets screwed up. Please bare with us here in the states. Thanks again for the info you sent.Comment

A pdf should faithfully print the original no matter where in the world its printed, the outside ring should be round and close to 193 mm on A4 paper printed at 100%, if its not then your setup may need checking .Comment

From what I have experienced at my job pdf does not transfer from other countries very good. Trust me I deal with it weekly if not daily. Images will be out of wack and fine print unreadable. I guess it is the way or hardware they send them through and from where they come from makes a big difference too. I have got pdf from China and japan that come out great one day and are unreadable the next. Same from England. Don’t know who is to blame and don’t really care, just a fact of life I have to deal with.
6666, the picture you sent me (which I thank you very much for) printed out to be 178mm not 193mm. And I have the best programs available thanks to my job. I checkeded settings and everything is great. If OD is 193mm what is the ID please, and I can ignore it out from there, been trying to figure this out for days when I first print out the first diagram.
Thanks all. Get out and find a treasure. I wish I was in Australia gotta be better than living here.Comment
