: Thanks for the info. I went to the site and checked out the demo. It says the
: feature that allows you to print a large drawing to multiplte sheets(for a
: small printer) is disabled in the demo. How did you get around this to
: print the templates? Or can you print this size?
The screen shows you the form outline that you've drawn and a box that shows what will print on an 8.5 x 11 inch sheet of paper. There are tools that let you flip or mirror the form along the vertical or horizontal axes. I put short "registration" lines near the edge of the printable area, printed that part of the form, then used the mirroring tools to move the next part of the form into the printable area and in the correct orientation. After printing a couple of forms this process becomes easier but it's not very elegant.
