Size of horse barding?

Post by The_Vanquished »

Im looking for the correct size of this horse barding here. It's not the correct size, but I can't find how big it should be. Any help would be appreciated.

It isn't the correct size? That's dissappointing. It's what I've been using. It looks like it should be the right size, since he uses it below.

Here is a way to get it the correct size, I print everthing out this way. Print it using MS word, and size the picture to 2 inches and diamater. Works for me.

I'm the one who originally submitted it and it has been working just fine for me. Make sure you are printing at 300dpi.

It is the right size, just make sure you print it at the right resolution (dpi).

I tried again, but it's still to big. It comes out as around third of a page. I don't have Microsoft word, just Corel. i can't figure out why. So I measured it, its about 3cm by 5.3cm. entered it in, and it looks right now.

If you look at the bottom of the page you will find the following.

Print Size (WxH):
5.2896 cm x 3.0334 cm

In whatever program you use make sure the image is set to print at this size.
