Hello Mike,
I have ony been messing with it for a few days so some of the information i have may not be completely correct, but here goes
1. This machine does not import pdfs, it does jpg svg bmp png dxf, i have been working with the png files so far.
2. Every time i import a file into Design Space it is never (so far) the correct size, for example png cones out more like n gauge than 00.
3. USA english is not UK english it is only a minor thing but i waste time trying to think like an American (not a nice feeling).
To get the scale right for A4 bearing in mind the US letter size paper is different.
As far as i can tell from my current knowledge.
1. different card thicknesses would need to be on different sheets
2. a border of approx .250" would be required
3. a scale measurement on each page would be needed ( to check resize was correct).
If you want to go down this road i am prepared to help (if you would like).
I must admit i was not planning on going down the road you are thinking of but if you would like to supply a simple building that i can work on in just black and white i am prepare to give it a go.
If you want to get somemore information try some of the American Forums, that is where i started, information for our hobby does seem to be small. I also tried 3 UK forums with little success.
For me i think it is going to be a long road, i am hoping that a few weeks will make a great deal of difference.
I hope this is of help to you.
