This video saved my project. I have a PDF of a Dimensions chart that they kindly sent me but unlike the other PDF charts I've gotten, Markup didn't like it at all and I was so confused on how to get the grid lines straight. The chart itself was perfectly straight but the auto-grid was wonky and I didn't know how to fix it until I manually set the number of rows and columns. Hopefully that helps someone else too. Thank you!
How did you get Dimensions to send you a PDF? I have a Christmas stocking that I'm working on and need a digital file but can't find contact info for Dimensions. Thanks.
@@lgmorris64 Standard practise is to contact Simplicity (the parent company) through their website’s contact form and ask! They do require proof you’re working on it as a personal project so be prepared to take a photo of the kit with all supplies laid out and they will also need the kit number (above the bar code).
This does help a lot. Most of my issues come from charts that are created by scanning a paper chart and thus end up "wonky". Can you do a detailed tutorial on importing scanned charts?
That was very helpful thank you. I have also been running into where there is more than one chart on a page and I have only been able to work with just one of the charts which makes it difficult. Is there a way of using more than one chart on a page or even duplicating a page to make it work? The chart I'm working with right now is a Hands on Design PDF file that I purchased from her website. It is called Live Life Simply.
I'm only a user - not an official answer here. I had the same issue with a chart from Modern Folk Embroidery. It has 10 pages, but three charts on each page. I used a PDF editor program to store each of the charts on a separate page, and created a new 30-page PDF file.
This was very helpful. Thanks

@@AliciaCraft Awesome. Thank you so much.

I'll see what I can do :)
I would like to see how you rotate a wonky chart so it is straight. That is my most problematic part. Usually from a scan. Thanks.
