Re: APRIL Stitch-a-Long - Samplers

Post by Kareesh »

For some reason I'm having an issue printing out the pattern I chose. I've tried printing the PDF and the KG file, but whenever I do, the mesh never shows ups, just the marks. I've checked on the KG options and the mesh box is checked. I didn't have a problem printing the Journey band a few days ago and I haven't changed anything, so I'm not sure what's going on. Didn't know if anyone had any suggestions or not...

EDIT: Oh, and thanks for all the help with the black work patterns. I think I have a few ideas from those. Will have to chart them up when all the bands are done. :)

That's a bit of an odd one. Are you printing the colour or black/white version(s)? Not sure if that would make a difference, though. If you like I can try making a PCStitch version of it (with matching PDFs) and see if that works any better for you - PM me and let me know which pattern you want.

On the other hand, if you fix it, do share - just in case anyone else has a similar problem!

I think I just about love you BMH!! Thankyou soooo much! My phone seems to be alright with the pdf's, but i'm not sure how much data it can take...

Hmmm.... Such a difficult choice... Might I consult your hat?

OH MYSTICAL MAGICAL HAT OF BMH!! WHICH BAND SHALL I SEW UPON MINE SAMPLER?

Be it; Animal Crossing items? Assassins Creed? Harvest Moon? Professor Layton? Space Invaders? Star Tropics oink? Streets of Rage items? Tetris? Zelda? Or Zelda (2)?

I KNEEL BEFORE YOU OH GREAT HAT AND AWAIT YOUR DEVINE ANSWER!!

I'm with you, I don't know what to pick... I wanted to do MegaMan X, but I don't wanna do the same border twice, so I'm lost... ;_;

:yahoo: So excited!

Torn between Portal and Professor Layton... Portal would fit my sampler better, but as a game I prefer Layton... Decisions, decisions!

I never did get it to print with the mesh on. I'm doing the Pokemon 5 pattern. I decided just to go with it, since once I got the outline done, I don't need the mesh necissarily. I did just use my computer for some of it as well.

And thanks for the offer, BMH. For some reason, though, I can't view anything in PCStitch. I have the pattern viewer downloaded and it's up to date, but every time I try and view a pattern, it tells me that it can't view it and just brings up a blank page. *le sigh*

I just find it weird that it wouldn't print the mesh for me at all. Just hope I'm the only one with the issue. :)
