Yet, another question.
« on: Mar 04, 2012, 12:16 PM »
I've been trying to print out the Large WOF Jango templates from adobe Photoshop using his instructions in scaling it, and haven't had any success, can someone please help me figure out how to print these things out?

Anyone? I would really like to get started but I don't want to free hand the templates and have them be wrong  :-\

I just used the "Large" sized templates from TDH...

The templates I found there are in different sizes and already divided across pages perfectly to the size you choose. Way easier than trying to size your own.

Here's the link.

If you are talking about already having these, try saving them as a new file after you resize them to the percentage specified according to your height, and then printing those new files. Save each picture as a JPEG.

That should do the trick  :)

I've tried printing them using adobe Photoshop but the pages come out blank. That's the problem I'm having, even after resizing and all that.

If I remember right the pages should have a scale on them. Just download the templates appropriate for your height, open in photoshoooop, and ctrl+t the window so the scale inches are inches in your window. Then print out at 100% size. You may have to print them on mulitple pages that split up the shape and then tape them together.

This could be caused by lots of stuff. I would make sure they layer isn't hidden (eyeball logo), make sure you don't have any overlays over it, make sure that your printer can print other things from photoshop. Hard to troubleshoot if we can't see. Upload a screenshot of your photoshop window maybe?

Alright, I will try this next time I get on the Mac (has Photoshop) since I've been using that and connecting it to a printer.
I appreciate the help though, thank you!

No prob. I have photoshop but chose to print mine from Acrobat Reader. It's a free software and didn't give me any problems. That might solve this a bit easier.
