ecause the Force is very accurate, only take note if the sides are slightly larger than 10” or slightly smaller
than 10” because it will probably be so close that you cannot even measure how much larger or smaller
than 10 inches
it might be. Instead, let’s say the
Height
is just the tiniest bit over 10”. Mark that side as
being 10.01”. Let’s say the
Width is a tiny bit
less than 10”. Mark that side as 9.99”. Now, if you feel you
can measure accurately, with a ruler, then do so. But just estimating should work fine, too. (Note that if you
are working with a metric ruler, you should be able to more accurately read the exact measurements). Write
those measurements onto your sheet:
•
Go to Cutter>Cutter Settings . In the top left corner of that window you will see the calibration settings:
•
Use a calculator to calculate the X Resolution and Y Resolution based on the measurements you obtained
versus
the size in SCAL. Note that it doesn’t matter if you used
Portrait or Landscape mode, the X
Resolution is based on left-to-right (width) and the Y Resolution is based on top-to-bottom (height):
New X Resolution = Current X Resolution multiplied by the desired value divided by the actual value
= 1.0 * 10 / 9.98
= 1.001
