This is a read-only archive of the inkscapeforum.com site. You can search for info here or post new questions and comments at I scanned in a shape and drew a line following it. I wrote text and made text to path. I deleted the line. Then if I print it, it's huge. One time when I exported it as a pdf to photoshop, it was the right size...but I don't know what I did.
Is it a resolution problem?
Thanks!

Re: Printing--Too large scale ?
Maybe. What are the measurements of your object?

1.5" x 3" at 300dpi.

Was that the size you scanned it?
Inkscape is probably working on 90 dpi making your image 5" by 10". Is that the size you get? Change your document properties to work in real world measurements and shrink down your image to the size you want it.
What you see on the screen in Inkscape is always 90 dpi.
