There are other variables that muddy the water, so unless you need to use them, they might just confuse you more. Don't let yourself get confused about how other programs handle the image, unless you're going to use those programs. Set the image size that you want in Inkscape, and it should print exactly that size.

But this is my understanding about how to print at a certain size and resolution.

Someone else will have to answer some of your other questions, because I get very confused about dpi and resolution. As long as you draw them at the right size, and the image is the right size, then what you see in Inkscape is all the correct proportions. Are they very complicated? Or could you draw the pattern pieces? Then you could move them around any way you want, in Inkscape. Instead, I would consider putting the pattern pieces in Inkscape. Regarding holding the pattern pieces up to the screen.well, if there's no other way, I guess, but it would take some more complicated math than I would want to do, to make the image display at its exact size on the screen. What size would you expect this design to print at?ĭo i need to ask the printer specific details? (easier said than done as i give the file to someone else who gets it printed at their printer)Ī cranky week-old infant - omg - poor babies (you and baby)! How do i work out what size the image will actually print out at? I tried printing the image at home on my home printer set at 300DPI and it came out about 19cm as well. I originally was expecting it to be about this size. I viewed it in toyles tile tester and it was about 19cm2. The problem is I sent this design to the fabric printer and it printed out at like 13cmx13cm ish (its a repeating pattern on fabric so hard to measure exactly) On exporting to PNG in the PNG export frame it says that the image is 688px at 300 DPI. I have my image in inkscape that is measuring 220px x 220 px (via the top viewer bar) or approx 5.6cm square. Thanks so much for your help it is very much appreciated. Unless I'm mistaken about that? You have the zoom factor at 100%, right? I think GIMP uses the same resolution as Inkscape, so that doesn't explain why it looks like a different size when you open in GIMP. Ok, about the middle of this page, it tells you how to figure out the DPI of your screen: I think I know a website that tells how to figure out the exact size.
But still, as druban indicated, your screen resolution affects that, and it might not be exactly the same size. You could export a PNG at the correct size (with 96 dpi), and look at that in an image viewer, to see the exact size. Why do you need to see it on the screen at exactly the right size? Can you find some way to set the size when you print it?īut I'm confused in your last message. But when you print it, you set the size you want, and then you have the right size and the right resolution (300 dpi). If you exported a PNG at 300 dpi, it's expected that it will be much bigger. Whatever size you set in Inkscape, that IS the size of the image. at 300 DPI.Īs if i make the image 21cm by 31cm in inkscape it prints out way way too big. I need to know how big to make the drawing in inkscape to make it print at 21cm x 31cm.
