Template Maker: Correct Sizing for MTC

SandyMcC

I was contacted by the owner of the amazing Template Maker site: http://www.templatemaker.nl/

He had viewed my video on importing SVG templates from his site into MTC and needing to resize them to match the original custom dimensions you input.  So he added options under the SVG export: one called General Use (use it for MTC), one for Inkscape and one for Illustrator.  

I modified my video to remove the resizing part because it's no longer needed, making it even simpler and faster to prepare a template for cutting.  If you've not previously used Template Maker, check out the link above and also my video here:   

If you're a Force owner, then apply Flatten Paths before exporting again as SVG.

That's great Sandy. Always cool when someone "listens" and takes steps to fix their product to make things easier on their users. I have used that site in the past. Has some really nice templates as I recall. Will have to remember to check it out again now that they will work even more easily.

@MeFlick - I agree with you, I am glad that he contacted @SandyMcC. I sent him an email a while ago (January) mentioning that his files do not size properly when they are opened and cut from MTC. We exchanged a few emails, in the end I just fixed the file myself, but he had mentioned that he would look at that.

Okay... first off, which template are you choosing, what dimensions and units are you entering, and list every other option you're selecting.  Please provide LOTS of details or screenshots.
