Scaling up Plans

HI Bob
Basically I've cut out a few bits and that's about it so far. Mainly due to lack of time and many other projects but hopefully more will happen in 2014!
I don't know how but the time seems to fly by as you get older and allegedly retired!!
Thanks for asking though, I'll have a look at your blog.
Regards
Chris

Scaling up Plans

I recently got tug plans at 1:96 scale. I went to the local Staples office supplies store and a kindly lady enlarged the 4 plans on an A0 copier and that gave exactly 1:48 scale I needed on two A0 sheets for £3 a sheet. A bargain.

Scaling up Plans

Thanks for all your suggestions, I'll have a go with PosteRazor first as my scanner doesn't seem to have any facility for resizing.
Thanks again

HI Chris
PosteRazor is a free software, search in Google and choose a download site. its actually for producing Posters and prints on A4 sheets which you join together.
Works well for enlarging plans and its FREE!!!
Good luck 😀
Live long and prosper

Scaling up Plans

HI Chris,
I find that scanning and then reprinting 25% larger works on small items, but for larger plans I reprint in poster form which is usually resizeable. This works with my Kodak printre scanner, and also with my HP Pro printer. I run XP Pro./ Vista/7/8/ and also in Linux. Scanners tend to have resizing as an available option on most these days.
Hope this is helpfull, Colin.
Fair winds and calm waters,
COLIN.

Ref up scaling of plans.
I found it easier to get a local printer to scale up or down for you me on A1 paper. I only paid £3 and for a similar fee they gave me a PDF copy on a memory stick as well
Hope this helps

Scaling up Plans

In conjunction with my Paddle Steamer project I need to scale up some plans by around a quarter.
Does anyone know of any suitable software (preferably low cost or free! ) that will do this on a PC running Windows XP, 7 or even 8.

Many thanks In anticipation
