Now Iʼve downloaded my image I go to the website

It enlarges my map and prints it across several sheets of A4

It is all very simple

I chose the size I needed

Printed it out

Trimmed off the borders

Used it as the basis for this display.

Andy used a childʼs art work for this one. It is huge as you can see.

Life-sized figures

You can use it for all sorts of things but donʼt forget sometimes it is quicker and more effective to just do it by hand.
