Luckily I remembered not to hit yes when it asks me to automatically resize the pieces because they don't fit on the pages haha.Hey folks. Kinda like this.Īll in all I think this was a way more daunting task in my mind then it really is. When placing the piece over the two pages (after setting your margin to the lowest size of 5) it helps if you place them on a part that has some corners, junctions etc. Now I stumbled upon a solution that maybe explained else where but I found it really useful when rearranging the pieces.

I've re arranged the pieces (thank you Tetris!) after resizing it to a wearable size. I'm using the file (satchmo III), although I'm not sure exactly where I dwnlded from. Well I have some pics to show what I've done. Well I finally got around to getting this done! Sorry for the delay.

This is a bit labour intense but it often pays off. When you import the parts pages and re-scale it it is possible to alter the layout of the parts (move them around) before tiling them to reduce the number of parts which have to be re-joined. This might give you some ideas of how it is done. Take a look at it and how the parts were split. There is a re-scaled Aliens APC by Jan Rükr in the downloads section. When you re-join them I recommend using tape or a strip of paper which you attach from the back side. Then print them, cut the parts out and re-join them. You can do the same with image or *.pdf files: Load them into your favourite graphic program, re-scale the parts and use the 'cut' function to tile the page. Pepakura Designer is able to print your development even if it is not registered. Having printed it you can cut out the parts and re-join them. If you have an unlocked *.pdo file you can open them in the Pepakura designer.
