Materials to Cut your Template
Need us to Cut your Template for you?
Please note: Although the seam is a hidden part of the shade, on angled shades, an anomaly with all computer-created templates can result in the seam being uneven e.g. narrower one end than the other. We suggest checking the template before cutting your Stick-It® and adding the fabric. It is easy to add to the seam by the process of elimination.
How to Print Out The Pattern
Most people only have an A4 printer, so they cannot print the pattern on one sheet of paper. You can print the pattern over multiple sheets of paper, and you can do this via the Paper Sizing & Handling options when it comes to printing.
You need to print the pattern as a "Poster" which divides significant PDF page(s) into multiple smaller pages. You can print the pattern by splitting the page across multiple sheets of paper (called "tiling").
The Poster option calculates how many sheets of paper are needed, and then you can print out all the sheets and put them together.
