Help me with the Curvy tailtidy TEMPLATE please....
 
cuffy??....hovis??...wideboy...zunkus??.....

right then some may remember me saying my old man was gonna help me do the curvy thing...

but trouble is I CANNOT print the template made by the mighty zunkus:smt039

i know u need to print it on a few pieces of paper and put them together etc bla blah bla.....

how????? grrrrrrrrrr

everytime i try to print it all it ever pints is page 1 of 1..try to change the settings .... even in print preview it only shows one page (so only about a quarter of the template)

this is getting annoying now as i have the mini indicators, the rsend number plate bracket, and all else needed I just need the template.....

Yep, its in relation to you print setting depending on what your printing it out with. Normally you need to turn off the 'fit to page' option. You should be able to find this under print preferences/setting/setup on the application your using to view the template.

Hiya Grinch...in my options in page setup its on normal printing not fit to page just checked that...firebox? not got this....tried copying it into word but it makes it small...pfft...

its in full size when i click the link...so u can scroll around it using up/down/left/right. so when i print its still in full size but only the top bit of the template comes out (as in what would be on page 1 of 4)..but it says theres only one page.....

and i thought i was computer savvy.!!!!..clearly not....

that firebox thing thanks for that but thats not in the option on mine when i open page setup.....

Hovis....just how attractive is wideboy?? somthing im not aware of?? lol

Is it version 6 or 7 as when I look at it in version 6 it just lets me print it full size.

Re: Help me with the Curvy tailtidy TEMPLATE please....
 
could someone not just print it out and post it to him?

Grinch 19-08-08 01:37 PM

Re: Help me with the Curvy tailtidy TEMPLATE please....
 
Yes... then there is a need to master the postal service... it could get complicated.
What if it get damaged or lost, it would be annoying waiting around for another.

Right, open up paint... its in programs, accessories...

Then once open select File -> open and paste in this address...
It will pull down the image and open it, now if you then select -> file -> print preview you should find it looks right.

Use the full address not the shortened version above... click it and copy it out of the address if you need to.

Re: Help me with the Curvy tailtidy TEMPLATE please....

right 2 mins grinch gonna try it.....

Re: Help me with the Curvy tailtidy TEMPLATE please....
 
Just seen this mate. You should have pm'd!
I know the template is a bitch to print since it's larger than A4 paper but it's doable of course. I've never tried to print directly from explorer. Can't you try from Word? I think it would be simpler. Just check that the printed scale matches real measurements on a ruler ok.

AT LAST!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grinch few pints comin your way from me next time theres a .org event...thankyou very...very... much for all that we got there in the end!!!

so i now have the full template on 4 bits of paper.....sightly worried that when i hold a ruler up to the scale bar where it says 10cm its actually 15.5cm!!!!...but im sure this is easily remedied once i have a play around....

thanks all....now to convince my old man to go caravaning (yes caravaning....no accounting for taste!) on sunday instead of saturday and he can do (i mean help me do) this!!!

pics soon hopefully!

Thanks again all

If you look at the 'page setup' under 'file' in paint it should say 100%... if thats different then that might be why your getting the odd size.

zunkus 19-08-08 02:20 PM

Re: Help me with the Curvy tailtidy TEMPLATE please....
 
As I said, check that the scale is right otherwise you'd end up loosing time, material and your soul for getting it wrong. I don't want to end up saying, "told you so".

Somebody else here did this and made a good post of it with pics, so take a look around as it might prove helpful.
