Using Pro 9.3.

I went into 'Options' ... 'General Printing Options' ... and under 'Grid Sizing Options' I set 'Specific Stitches Per Inch' at 8.


I am assuming that this means that after saving the pattern to PDF it should then print out at 8 squares per inch on the paper?

When I had PCS 7 set to do this it came out at 60 stitches across the page.

This new one sometimes comes out at 60 and sometimes at 80...even though I have it set to be the same every time I make a new pattern.

Also...I'm not certain because I didn't keep track...but I think it is coming out right on the patterns I made before using the PCS 7 after I open them in the pro and print then to PDF. But not in the new patterns made with the Pro.

It would seem the option you set under the general printing options isnt the one used under print preview - I noticed that mine reverted back to automatic, when I changed it on the print preview window, it then seemed to work.

So I guess that option doesnt quite do what we think.

Im still trying to work out my ruler problem - its been read plenty, but no one has had any comments :(

Hi. I read your post...so I went and searched to see if I could find a way to do what you want and I couldn't. All I could find was a way to turn the rulers off.

So I guess we are stuck with them where they are.

Yeah its annoying, only other choice is kinda upside down but then my brain would hurt.. Its complicated, but, I need to work from bottom right up.. and I work right to left.

Sigh..

Thanks for trying though, Id tried a few things, but, couldnt make it work - in case you wonder why http://blog.crochet-crazy.com :) I dont actually do cross stitch with it, although I can and will do cross stitch on them, I also do something else with patterns I can make on it.

What do you mean you use Pro 9.3? I thought the updated version was 9.00.010?

Terry,

You are correct. I just let that one go by because I guessed she meant 9.00.03, now a bit behind but still version 9.

FYI - the farther right you go in a number sequence, the more minor the update (in general). The change from 8 to 9 was MAJOR. There have been no "medium" changes so it is still "00". The last group are minor fixes/changes and there have been 10 so far (from .000 to .010).
