3 simple steps for a perfect result

​​

1. Don't resize the layout. Just leave it as it is (scaled 1:1). If it doesn't fit on A4, simply use A2.

2. Text and holes should be separate. As in the example below, the top panel design has only holes, while the bottom one has only text. Important: Both versions must have the "outer contour" of the panel.

3. No crosshairs in the center of the holes, and at most a single dimension (e.g., height or width of the entire plate)
   Simply write information such as material thickness and color (either anodized color or RAL color) on top and export everything scaled 1:1 as a DIN A2 PDF.
