Cannot fit my new pattern properly even though the check box is correct.<br \/><br \/>A: Sometimes the printer can move the paper a few millimeters to the sides, making it difficult to set exactly. Most often it will be good anyway. You cut away an edge and tape the papers overlaid. Be careful when you tape because if you tape a little obliquely on a sheet it can be a big mistake at the end. <\/p><hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/><p>Q: I just printed my size but some lines go beyond my size. Should I care about them?<br \/><br \/>A: No, they are long to cover all sizes. If you print all sizes, it doesn&#8217;t look &#8220;weird&#8221;. Even some text can end up being &#8216;skewed&#8217; but looks quite normal when all layers are enabled.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PDF-pattern BUY AND DOWNLOAD The files are sent out automatically by Etsy but may vary depending on payment method.
