New Directives - printing issue PSA

By smickletz, in Star Wars: Legion

When printing the Tournament Regulations, the page leaves 1mm margins. This means the template for LoS is 2mmx2mm too small.

I recommend a printer friendly version version of the template from FFG and directions for printer settings. It’s important these new templates are easily accessible to everyone!

Another good alternative would be to include templates on some of the punch boards.

Please fix this so we can be sure everyone has the same size template!

The seriously can't get out of their own way these days rofl

Have you tried printing it at actual size or 100% scale? That should resolve the problem.

Welp, here’s my problem with that.

I’ll be able to fix the problem for myself, but it’s important that this be easier to print for the larger community. We are all well aware of the issues printing the RRG from a background graphics perspective and this new document that requires printing should be made printer friendly.

Ah, Mac. Scale options are just regular print options in Windows, but yeah, no idea how that works in Mac.

But yeah, a simple, no background, print-friendly PDF with multiple templates on it would be nice to have. FFG should have included that, but hopefully someone in the community can whip one up.

I've got a model for each of my unit members. Could i use that as a template?

are you printing that through a browser or acrobat? (acrobat will give you scale options`) - but yeah, mad they would not set it to something generic everything can print easily at scale

Looks like you’re printing from an iPad, which I don’t think has scaling options. Have you tried from your desktop/laptop? That will at least resolve the scaling issue.
