Printing RMD draws.

Hi.....I can now print off a good clear A4 size copy of my drawings....but I thought I would send them to a commercial printing company ......but my pictures only come out about A5/6 size. Does anyone know how to keep the drawings large and clear? Have tried re-sizing jpgs but that doesn't seem to work. Any ideas welcome.....Thanks

Re: Printing RMD draws.

Well, JPEG is a very small file at the cost of quality. I recommend print-screening your drawing into paint, that way you have the highest quality.

And for enlarging them and keeping the same quality... maybe try converting them to a vector drawing?

Vector example:

Although, I don't know if it's possible xD I did a quick google search and if you want a good conversion then you have to buy some good software. A lot of software have a 30-day trial period, so just use that trial to convert.

hope that helps...

p.s.
I don't know much about Vector. I just happen to know this little.
