![]() ![]() PS - I'm actually a "needle and thread" woman Unless you can still use AI to print? Or I don't know, but I can imagine that some fancy printers might do that? Or possibly you could take the file to a self service print shop (such as Kinkos in US) and have it printed like that, or even get it printed on large paper? So just let us know when you get to that step, and we can offer suggestions. If you need to break up a pattern piece after Trace Bitmap has been used to convert it, you might need to use a different process than if it had been drawn originally in Inkscape. And of course, if you draw the pattern originally in Inkscape, conversion would not be needed, since it would automatically be in the SVG format. ![]() You may not actually even notice any difference. But there's an online trace engine that will do that, and you can find it here: I would suggest trying both, and decide which one you prefer. And Inkscape's trace engine doesn't do that. However, you might find (in this case) that something called a centerline trace would be better. (instructions: ) It will convert a raster image to SVG. The raster format of pattern pieces should trace fairly well with Inkscape's Trace Bitmap feature (in the Path menu). You'd have to take the oversized pattern piece and "manually" (using Inkscape) cut it into pieces, and move to the needed position before printing. If it's like a drawing of a suit or dress, or something like that, you could probably use Inkscape's Trace Bitmap to convert it. If it's something like a family photo or landscape, it will be hard to convert. If you could show us a thumbnail of the JPG, we could offer suggestions about converting it to SVG. After it's converted to SVG, then you can scale it, with dimensions locked, and not lose quality. You might be able to convert it to vector, depending on what's in the image. Or there's a tiled clones feature that might work too.Ī JPG is a raster graphics format, which means it cannot be scaled without losing quality (pixelation). But you could make copies of the pattern piece, and paste it 6 times in one file and then print that. the ability to tile segments of a pattern and print them on letter sized paper.Īre you talking about tiling a pattern on the fabric, so that you can match the graphics and/or stripes or checks, when you sew the pieces together? Or are you just talking about putting say 6 sleeve patterns pieces on one sheet of paper? (My mom taught me to sew when I was 8 years old ) Well, Inkscape could do bothĮdit - If it's the latter, Inkscape can't take one image and print 6 times on the paper, that I know of.
