Posted - 01/16/2009 : 16:25:10 Hello all!
I have had the pcstitch program for a while now and just upgraded to the pro. I wanted to know how I go about changing my saved work to a pdf file. I am making a portrait for my brother-in-law's upcoming wedding and have printed out the chart but for some reason some areas of the chart were kind of blurry. I think it may be because the chart is too small or because my printer is running out of ink but I really don't feel like printing the chart again. I mean it took like 14 pages the first time and this time I changed the "specific stitches per inch" to 10 and the chart is larger but now it means I need to print like 15 pages...more if I change the stiches per inch to lower than that.
Can someone please help me with this, thanks! |

I have another question though, how do you actually get the chart changed to that file? I tried right clicking to copy and also using the "save as' feature but it only shows the pat file. Please help, thanks! |
