    Hi all
    ..first of all..hope 2006 brings lots of new & exciting business to everyone.
    I personally don’t use vehicle software although i am quoting for a few vans at the moment..
    This may sound a daft question but how do you scale the vans/cars using the above..ive loaded the free one from their website..ie do you have to make the workable area on your software large enough or can it be made smaller then enlarged later to scale..sorry if it’s a simple question but trying to justify if i need this software or any other vehicle software for that matter..

    thanks
    Jon

    What software are you using John? they need to be scaled by 2000%

    On the cd’s they are full size though, so if you bought them there would be no need to resize the outlines.

    Happy New Year to all.
    Jon, I’ve used these vehicle profiles quite a lot over the last few years, although mine have come from Ingram Publishing in Cheshire, I expect they’re the same. Brian is correct just enlarge the scale drawings by 2000% but my experience is that you should beware of measuring the panel sizes from the drawings they’re not very accurate! I would always advise you to measure the panel on the vehicle. That said they are very good for producing layouts.
