Hi all.
I am getting ready to build up some aluminum ailerons. I made a simple drawing of each aileron using DeltaCad. My intent was to have a full size print made of each aileron, lay each on the worktable, add blocks to produce a jig, then build the ailerons right on top of the drawings.
I hit a few snags. First i tried officemax, they aren't able to open a dc or dxf file. I tried a local blueprint company who does file conversions but ran into the same problem. Next i used a free online converter and saved the drawings as pdf. After sending to the blueprint co., they told me the pdf saved as 8.5 x 11. and wouldn't produce a full size print.
Can anyone tell me an easy way to print my DeltaCad drawings in full size?
