For all those Firefox and IE7 users I have built a new facility to print your own tiles (ie. not the tiles below but those you have on your computer). You will require password access and you will only be able to view your own tiles. Please PM me from COC to use http://www.masikatiwebdesign.com/teabags/tealogin.asp
* Images must be standard JPG files. * Pixels do not directly relate to inches or cm but are the standard measurement on computer screens. What size the tile prints at is related to how you have your screen set up (different for everyone). The only way to determine what physical size a tile will print at is to do a trial print. Also, you can select up to 5 tiles in a single print. Obviously an unlimited number can't fit on one page so the print program estimates the total size of tiles and forces page breaks every so often, so that tiles don't end up printing half across the boundary of a page. As I can only estimate such sizes, I err on the side of caution. This means it is likely you will end up with a gap at the end of each page. Note that if you override the number per row you may end up with partial tiles at the end of rows. Stick with the recommended number if you are in any doubt. What you can do before printing, is use the Print Preview option. Instead of just clicking the print button on the browser, (now this is IE), choose File from the top menu in the browser, then choose Print Preview. You can change the margins in here but as I said, I have to estimate what will fit on everyone's page including allowing for varying size margins, so adjusting things won't fit more to a page. ** A gap of 1 or 2 makes it easier to cut the tiles apart. A gap of 0 is useful if you wish to print a continuous banner of the tiles for decoration in addition to your folded medallion. You may want a banner to use a different size from the tiles for folding eg. This card uses tiles printed at 200 pixels in the medallion and tiles printed at 100 pixels with a gap of 0 for the top and bottom banners. It is my tile called green-blue_tile27. ** To print your tiles, once displayed, do not right-click and select print. This will print only the single tile you right-clicked on. You must use your browsers print button OR from your browser menu, select FILE, PRINT or FILE, PRINT PREVIEW.
