Printing Oversized Patterns with Inkscape

There are times when we need to print a scroll saw pattern larger than a standard sheet of paper. This can be either for large fretwork patterns, intarsia, lath art, or even yard art patterns. In this video, we use Inkscape to prepare an oversized pattern for printing. We review importing and cleaning up the pattern from the last video. We also cover adding registration marks and show you a process to make printing large patterns easy.

Exactly what I needed. Thanks.

Excellent! just what I needed, Thank you....

This is a useful tutorial :)
You missed some of the shortcuts :)
You can rotate objects by 90 degrees by holding Ctrl and pressing [ or ]
Ctrl + G is the keyboard shortcut for grouping selected objects,
If you group by 'First selected' all selected objects will move to centre on the position of the first object, which means the original object wont need to be repositioned :)

What is the little circle used for?

[@spiderone3454]

I know you use a windows computer/mouse. In all your videos you always use the right click on your mouse. I have a magic mouse I use with my I-Mac. Is the any way I can get the same action/response you get with the right click you use on your mouse with my magic mouse?

i have used this technique for when printing 2 pages like you have done but lately I have patterns that are 6 to 9 pages. Where would I position the cross hairs for that? Thanks for your help

[@ScrollSawVillage]

I'd put a whole bunch of them wherever you can. Especially since it won't interfere with your cutting. If there's a section where it doesn't have cross hairs, it isn't the end of the world. You'll just have to line the pattern up using the existing lines.

Ok thank you
