Plan Enlargement???
 
Hello!!! I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to increase the size of plans??? I tried to go to Kinkos and they either didn't have the "software" to do it or their printer/copier was not long enough!!! Help?????

Navpro, I dont know how complicated your plans are, but when i enlarged my eagle 2, I traced onto rolled tracing paper, then went to kinkos and they have a continuous feed copier/enlarger. the trick was getting the plans into a long thin format that could be blown up, the originals would not have worked....hope this helps, Tim

Try a blue print shop. They usually have large format printers. I use a K & E 36 inch printer. If you are going too big, you have to cut the plans. Our largest size is 36 inch but it can go any leangth. I have made some 36 inch by 10 to 12 feet. Do it in strips if you have to.

I agree with a place that does blueprints/architecture reproductions. My plans cost me 80 cents a page there. At Kinkos, it was closer to $8.00 a page.
Should be able to scale up/down.
