PRINTING DIRECTIONS

The download of the tutorials from talent-aiguille.fr website is limited to 3 downloads and 30 days. Once your files downloaded, save them on different drives (i.e. an USB key). You need to download and install Acrobat Reader® to open and read the documents on your computer, on your tablet, and to print them. Prefer a color printing, inkjet or lazer, to get the best results for photos and captions. Choose a high quality paper, bright white, of at least 80 g/m². Adjust your printer settings on the best quality for a optimum aspect of the printing ("text and photo", for example, or "high quality"). The exact name of these options depends on the make and the model of your printer.

These PDFs files were designed to reproduce the templates at their real size, on a single page if size permits, or split on different pages, with dashlines and marks to merge the different parts. For this reason, the tutorials are available in 2 formats:

"Letter US", 21.59 × 27.94 cm (8.5 × 11 in.), for North America;
"A4 format", 21 x 29.7 cm for other countries.

To print your templates without any deformation, you must have downloaded the right format of the tutorial, which must match the paper format of your printer. Then, print the file(s), using "real size" or "100 %" in your printer settings. DO NOT USE "Adjust" or "Shrink" options, which would result in a distortion of the templates.

You can check the right size of the templates, before starting your work, by measuring the mark of 5 cm and 1 inch included in each model page, directly with a scale.
