ORIGINAL: RFJ

Purchased Tile Print recently for the very modest fee and am well pleased.

Couldn't copy from Acrobat 8 so e-mailed BipeFlier for help and his response was very quick and worked fine. Should have read this thread more carefully as he answered my problem several pages back - sorry!

Small thing, but when you save tiles and reprint them the page numbers and alignment marks don't print or am I doing something wrong. I do have both options selected from the drop down menue.

Thank you Bipe Flier for all your development work - this is very useful software for modelers and I hope you are encouraged to keep improving it and adding new features.

The page numbers and crop marks aren't saved to the tiled images, if that's what you mean. If you reload them back into Tile Print, and the print page numbers and crop marks are on, then it will print them. Make sure you do a fit to page before printing them. The save tiles option isn't really designed for re-printing in Tile Print. It was added because someone requested it so they could put the images into a PDF.

The next release will remember the scaling of a plan, so all you have to do is reload the plan and then print the page you want. For now though, you'll have to reset the scale every time you load the plan.

Status: offline 		The latest release of Tile Print is ready for downloading. Just open Tile Print then click on "Tools" > "Check for Updates" on the toolbar to get the latest version.

Tile Print will remember the scaling for your files and will set them to the last scale setting.
There is a notes button on the toolbar that allows to add notes to your plans.
There is a new option under the Files menu called "Recent Files", which allows you to browse all the plans that have been previously opened in Tile Print.
Once you have set the scale of your document, you can rescale up or down by a percentage using the "Rescale" option under the "Edit" menu.
Added support for Adobe Reader 8.

I've freshened up the look of the toolbars for an Office 2007/Vista style.

You've done a nice job of capturing the O2K7/Vista look -- I hope you didn't capture the problems of two as well.

Status: offline 		Thanks,

I was going to wait until I got Vista (I'm supposed to be getting a free upgrade, but nothing has come yet.) so that I could make it switch colours to match the current theme, but some people were wanting to get at some of the new features, so I figured that I could add the theme matching later. If anyone is running Tile Print on Vista, please let me know if there are any issues and a screen shot would be nice.

Status: offline 		I was setting up a laptop for my in-laws today and it has Vista, so I thought that I'd give Tile Print a try. Vista complains about registering a few DLLs, but Tile Print runs fine. I need to do more testing, but I tried most of the features and nothing failed to work. It runs fast and it looks darn good too.

Status: offline 		Hi, and thanks for a super utility. I followed instructions and am only able to get the first tile to print (the upper left corner of the drawing) I am using an Epson RX580 printer attached to a computer using Vista, and I suspect Vista may be the problem. If this is so, can you recommend a work-around or patch? Also, please advise if Tileprint works OK with XP Home. I can hook up another computer, if absolutely necessary.

Thanks again, Mercer
