Its a sink template that i need printed out say 18 x 20 inches.

I cannot open a DXF file or print that big.

Do UPS shops do this, or ?

I can email the file.

Your a little ways away from me or I would help you out.

Only thing I can offer is to save it as pdf which will prob make it easier for you to find a place to plot it.

It’s a cad drawing file.

Someone will need to import the file in a cad program and then print it. Its odd someone would give you a dxf as I haven't seen anybody use that format in 20 years at least. Anyway, i could import it and send you back a pdf that most anyone can print.

What they said, mostly. I still handle dxf export files from one of Bentley's products that use microstation as the backbone.

I don't think it would hurt to try this....

Thanks guys, I did the PDF convert, Ill see if I can get it printed somewhere.

Its a Kohler sink, their file. I can print the template on 8x14 paper but need it to be bigger, to actual scale.

I have the dimensions on the template, but cannot re-draw it bigger manually myself because its irregular in shape with 2 oval front corner curves which are not a uniform "radius".

I can draw it close, but it needs to be exact as my old sink hole may be too big, for the new sink....

I'd call Baton Rouge Blue Print or Lettermans.

hey, what exactly editor did you use for it? You did the right thing to convert the file to PDF format. I encountered a similar problem and with the help of this editor https://pdfmovavi.com/create-pdf I made a PDF file and solved this problem.

They can handle it. Also, fedex office should be able to do it.

Split it into 4 pieces and then tape the 4 pages together.
