I'm creating an Altoids® tin cover for the club.
What's the exact size of the
blue
area (in cm)?

Can anyone verify that the size is correct?
Download, print, cut, test.

Hi Nicola, I think it will depend on the individual printer/programme etc.
I am using Firefox and I just went to "Print" and finished product was 7.7 x 4.4.
I am sure if I used "Paint" or some other program, I would be able to massage it to fit the lid dimensions.

Ok, Mike, the image size is 82,96 × 47,40 mm and
GIMP
(for example) reads correctly the size.
Can you try to print it with
GIMP
?
