| 330042 | 2005-03-03 02:43:00 | Hi guys, I'm stuck on someone else PC and am looking for some freeware/shareware/open source software that can open image files and print them out with crop marks.. Why do I want to do this? I have a design with a white background and I want to print it out to a certain size, say 10.5cm wide.. However, the white background of my design blends with the white paper and I can't find the edges. I know, I could use a ruler.. But that doesn't quite have the look I desire. Cheers. |

Inserting a border is probably the easiest way to do this. Most graphics programs should be able to do this. |

| 330046 | 2005-03-03 06:08:00 | Cheers guys. I ended up drawing them in with MS Paint.. Then printing with irfanview. I designed the images in Photoshop and would usually use the built-in crop marks of Photoshop, but yeah.. I wasn't at my computer and I wasn't thinking ahead. It all worked out though.. They came in about 0.5mm under the size that I intended, but it was close enough. |
