Thanks in advance.

Status: offline 		If your talking about transferring from plans I have found that if you photocopy the plans and then iron them on with dry heat that works a lot better than tracing. If your drawing the plans yourself in CAD sometimes it helps to make the line thicker and make the copier contrast darker so more toner is transferred to the paper. Chris

I've purchased it at the local OfficeMax ... its in with all the computer/copy paper and you have to look for it, but they have it. I'm sure the other office "super stores" carry it too.
