miffy Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I have just got back from taking MiL into Penzance. We found a lovelly knitting pattern for her and bought it with the wool however the print on the pattern is very small so I said I would just pop it into the scanner and enlarge it and print it off over 2 sheets, if you see what I mean. Problem is I cant work out how to do it the program seems to be called Irfanview. Can anyone help please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackiepoppies Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Hi Miffy, I would love to help but I am such a 'pooter numpty I can't even get an avatar for myself (And I've read all the 'How to' bit ) Sorry Jackiex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I'll try to help if I can! You may be able to change the size once you've scanned it. Scan it as normal into Word, say, then see if you can increase the "box" once it's in Word. If you copy it so you have two identical copies, you could then increase each one so the first half shows on page one and the second half on page two. Not sure if that makes sense . I'm just off to try it out to see if it actually works! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miffy Posted February 11, 2009 Author Share Posted February 11, 2009 thanks ANH will give it a try later, otherwise I shall just pop into the library and see if they can do it on the photocopier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
