Every new project I work on seems to need a resize on the pattern or stencil or artwork. I found a wonderful computer program for exact copies of any size you want to print. It is from a company that I found for stained glass patterns but is excellent for everything! The company is Rapid Resizer. com . You can even try it for free for a few days.

Looks helpful.
I use a program from Serif, called Pages Plus. I have used it for years for newsletters, and resizing and saving patterns. I love it. You can download a free trial at www.serif.com if you want to look at it also. You can't enter the sizes you want, but you can drag and enlarge and it has ruler guides.
