Default Need some help with front screen templates

Maybe I'm an idiot....but I can't figure out how to print out the screen templates from
http://www.fixedroofcoupe.com/blankc...ount=templates so that the scale is correct.
I can't seem to print them in full scale. Both the main duct and brake duct templates come out printed the wronge size. I've tried re-scaling them in Word, Paint and even some photo software. Still they won't print out as 16" X 4", etc. Has anyone figured this out. Please tell me the trick. Thanks, Mike.

If you print them in paint, it'll come out on 3 sheets. That's normal. If you print them in photoshop or something, it may come out either WAY too big or too small.

Print them out on the three sheets, cut them out, and then trace it onto cardboard. Voila!

OK, It's official...I"m a dumb-****! I did that and it worked. What was throwing me off was the fact that on the FRC site it said the templates were going to be 16" X 4", etc. I didn't bother to actually go measure the ducts. Thanks for the help!!

I printed them from MS Photo Editor, but I have an 11x17 printer. They came out just fine.
