🪡Dart/Pattern Print Tools

Pattern Print Tools

From home printer to 36" plotter to print shop — get your pattern printed correctly the first time. Start by verifying the scale, then choose your print method.

Three steps to a good print

1. Verify — use Scale Checker or PDF Scale Verifier to confirm your PDF is at 100%

2. Format — choose your output: Home Printer Tiling, Plotter Calculator, or Print Shop Guide

3. Modify (optional) — use the Pattern Modifier to add SA, resize pieces, or apply FBA/SBA directly to the PDF
