Hi guys,

sorry for the english, but there is no other way for me ^^
I got 10 A3 prints (300gr) done at the copyshop.


They ended looking up like this:Image

when assembling i found out the boxes are smaller then the real snes boxes.

Did i print it wrong?
should I have made them print it horizontally? or are the A3 boxes designed smaller?

thanks.

Hi,
Yes you should have printed it in landscape orientation.
But what is surprising is that even in portrait mode, your box would have been chuncked.
Be sure to print in real size, not in full page size.
There are marks on the images to check size result.

thanks y

the reason i had to ask is that the marks on the printed paper still measure about 2cm!!
(i had this printed by the printshop but had to convert all images into pdf and they went into portrait mode)

thanks again.

Weird, it's just not possible.
There are two length on one mark.
The smallest is 2cm and the longest is 2 inches.
