Title: Oval Key Chain Pattern Generator
Post by: Spartan scroller on December 19, 2010, 11:54:46 am
Hi Steve:  Been making a lot of your oval key chains with the polymer clay inlay lately.  It's fun, easy, and a great way to use up scrap wood (there really is no such thing you know.  It isn't scrap till it fits in the shop vac nozzle).  My quetstion is: Is there a way to put more than one pattern on a page before printing?  I know that it's possible with the other key chain pattern but don't seem to be able to do it with this one. Seems ashame to use a whold 8x10 sheet of paper for one small pattern (yeah I'm cheap but I prefer to be called "thrifty").

You can export the pattern as a .bmp(bitmap) file. Then you could use something like word and insert the pictures and print the document.

I wish the other two programs had the save feature too.

Whenever I have a program that doesn't have a "save" feature, I will use alt+Printscreen.  This puts it in the same place that "copy" uses.  Then I paste it into my favorite image reader, Irfanview, where I crop it and print it out.  Works for me.  Silver Sliver
