How do I resize my impact outlines correctly. Thanks. I’m using flexisign 7. I don’t know when I import them if they are the correct size or need to be resized. The book says resize to 2000%. I’m unsure of what to do, any help would be appreciated. Cheers.

I tend to import the AI file then resize. Go to edit>resize then on the size menu (it’s got a proper name, minds blank) where it says 100%, change that to 2000%. Job done.

Thanks. I’ll give this a go then let you know if I’ve got it cheers.

Just a quick point EPS files are full size and don’t need scaling if you are using Flexi it can open them with no problems the scaled versions are more so for AI & Corel which won’t always accept a big size artboard.

Import into Flexi as an Ai and scale by %2000 – Option K on a MAC.

Any reason why Illustrator still wont let you open a file at any size you want?
