Why the possibility to view and print RASTER files?
Some plans are supplied only in raster format, so there is a big problem for the user who want print them
in real size.
IsiPlot offers a new function to semplify this task: you can view them, then calibrate and print to the
desired size, using tiling if required.
Here is an example of the way you can do this using IsiPlot:
You can here the raster file opened using 'File - Open raster file' function
|
As first you must calibrate the file.
Simply press the 'Caliber raster' toolbar button, then the vertices of a segment whose length is known.....
|
... then input the real length of the segment and it unit.
ALL DONE!
|
Now if you enable the Grid you can see how the file will be tiled during printing....
You can also take measurements by clicking a point with the mouse and moving it onver the second point
|
... and here if the Print Preview!
|
You can also select to view-print only a defined area of the raster:
Select the desired area by using the 'Area' toolbar button.....
|
...and here is its printing preview!
