Printing notes- Computer guys help please

Postby shanester » Aug 7th, '06, 20:14



Need a bit of help from those a bit more IT (not the magical type) knowledgeable than myself.

I want to print a mismade £10 note as you can't buy them

I was thinking that I could scan one in normally, print the image tiled on both sides of the paper (like you can buy $1 bills in the US) and then I can cut or tear them as I like.
It doesn't bother me that they won't look like normal tenners, as, well they won't be normal tenners.

So I have a scanner and have managed to scan the images (and they are stored in TIF format, although I can choose other formats if I want to). How do I make one image into a sheet of images without the pc changing the size of it (which is the problem if I use Windows Photo Printing Wizard).

Your help will be much appreciated

Any more details. I have a great routine worked out and have already blocked it. I just need the final piece which is a UK mismade bill.

Thanks

A really basic but would work way is to paste the image in to work. Very crude but it will keep you witin the confines of an A4 sheet and it will work
