Printing Oversized Patterns with Inkscape

Hi Travis,

First I'd like to tell that your voice is very audiogenic;

Thanks for introducing me to Inkscape, I never thought it would turn out such a great software...

Video quality is very good, what soft do you use for screen capture?

You're a good teacher too, thanks for your time and efforts.

Best Wishes,

fEZ.

...First I'd like to tell that your voice is very audiogenic...

LOL...I had to look up audiogenic and still don't know what it means. But my ego forces me to believe that it's a good thing.

I'm glad you're enjoying Inkscape. It's a really cool program and pretty impressive for being free! It may not be as powerful as your professional graphics suites, but it certainly makes you think twice about forking over several hundreds of dollars for the pro gear! I'll continue doing tutorials with Inkscape. I think the next one we'll actually design a simple pattern.

I use Camtasia Studio for my screen captures. It has its quirks and goes out of sync more often than I'd like. It's a little spendy for how often I have sync problems, but it really is the best I could find without buying specialized hardware. Plus it has lousy editing features (I'm a TV editor by profession, so it drives me nuts) I just use a Plantrinics headset microphone to record my audio. Seems to work just fine and captures my cracking voice. Its very surreal to edit audio/video of your own voice.

Travis...

Really enjoyed your tutorial. I for one only use it with my portrait patterns, BUT, my wife's hobby is oil and acrylic painting and you just taught me how to enlarge some of her patterns for her hobby, thanks a million, now she owe ME for a change. Looking forward to your classes....Ron T.

Your ego is right Travis! Audiogenic is just a word I made up from photogenic, which is supposed to mean that your voice is attractive as a subject for sound recording.

Keep up the good work.

Cool info keep them coming i have now downloaded the  inkscape and will be playing with it soon.

Thank's Devon Boy 

Great Travis I love the movie every little bit helps!

Travis.    BINGO   It just so happens that I needed this exact tutorial right now. Perfect timing....thanks for all you do .

If you make the pattern into a pdf, adobe reader print has "Poster" option, and it will print it for you, with registration marks in the corners.  I used it with my chili master sign.  It was a jpg, I imported it into a pdf, then printed poster option.  But still a great tutorial.

Hi Travis,

 Do you happen to have this tut written out? I am trying to enlarge a pattern that will be printed on several pages and I find it easier to follow written instructions.

Thanks in advance,

Rick

I don't right now.  I can put that on my "To Do" list, but it might be awhile before I get to it.  This is our busy time of year at work.  

If someone wants to write a step by step using my video as a guide, I won't complain.  

Thanks Travis.

Rick

Cool
