Worksheets20 by 16hThis defaults to 50.5 by 40.5 centimetres, which is 2 or 3 millimetres less than 20 inches by 16 inches.14 by 11vI use this when mounting prints for certain picture frames. It is identical to "20 by 16" except for the default size.AIt is OK for boards from 20 by 16 inches to 50 by 40 centimetres.MethodZI don't use the method described in the CD that was included with my Longridge Duo System.}It assumes that the rectangle drawn on the back of the mount is exactly the size and position of the window that will be cut. PhysiogramIdentify the "Reference Corner"QYou need a corner on the back of the board that is a pretty-accurate right-angle.Measure the image sizeDecide "Gap each side"Decide "Offset"Linkshttp://www.barrypearson.co.uk/ Longridgehttp://www.longridge.co.uk/NCPShttp://www.ncps.org.uk/=This is true for the Longridge Duo System bevel mount cutter.hApart from adding this worksheet, I haven't changed the spreadsheet to make it easier for others to use.Draw and cut the windowiDraw these lines relative to the two lines identified by the "Reference Corner" determined by "1" above".What is important here is that this "Reference Corner" identifies two lines, (meeting at a right angle), to be used by "5" below.hThis helps determine the size of the window that will be cut, in combination with "Gap each side" ("3").iThis helps determine the size of the window that will be cut, in combination with the "image size" ("2").6Then cut along these lines using the Longridge system!From early on I have used this spreadsheet, or earlier versions, to identify where to draw the lines (on the back of the board) to cut to.IThis spreadsheet may work for some other bevel mount cutting systems too.zIt is acceptable to demand a sort-of-sharp pencil and a ruler at least 50 centimetres long. (Mine is 80 centimetres long).GYou can easily change it if your board size is significantly different.qInstead, it measures all distances from just 2 lines meeting at a right-angle at or near the corner of the board.Those 2 lines are normally 2 sides of the board, (where there is a good-enough corner), or 1 side plus a line drawn at a right-angle to that side.XThis method can result in an accurate rectangular window without knowing the board size.However, positioning that window on the board needs reasonable knowledge of the board size, for example to get visibly equal margins.This method doesn't measure inwards from each side of the board. (That would need an accurately cut board and accurate knowledge of its size).rOften, you will find that one of the natural corners of the board is good enough. (Use the print itself to check!)zIf not, draw such a corner, typically by drawing 1 line at a right angle to a side. I mark it "RC" for "Reference Corner".These are the "Photo size" cells of the "Long dimension" and "Short dimension" used in the spreadsheet, not necessarily in that order.UThis is the required distance between the image and the edge of the window to be cut.{If you want a "white gap" between the image and the edge of the window, ie. visible original paper, this value is positive.If you want the window to reach to the printed image, typically this should be negative, perhaps -1 millimetre, to allow a small overlap.\By default, the spreadsheet places the window centrally within the stated area of the board.These offset values move the window around in the board without changing the size of the window. (For example, to give a larger margin at the bottom).Ultimately, this is an artistic judgement. (I often add a half-millimetre to an offset to avoid having to draw lines at half a millimetre).Grey cells "Line 1" and "Line 2" of the "Long dimension" and "Short dimension" identify where to draw the lines relative to the "Refence Corner".pI use this for specialised mounting in portrait orientation with a small "thumbnail" print below the main image.Identify the width and height of the image to be displayed in the window. (Don't include "white space" - white borders are handled by "Offset", "4").uType them into the appropriate worksheet, for example the "20 by 16" worksheet. (Input is normally into white cells). Version 1.1The "20 by 16" and "14 by 11" worksheets can also identify where to draw the lines for a second ("Top") board to be placed over the main ("Bottom") board.Apart from the board size and the "Gap each side", they obtain their "Top board" details from the "Bottom board" part of the worksheet.Z wn 7 ~ Du: 4 |cc   j #u'+,  dMbP?_*+%MDEPSON Stylus Photo 1290p|m|`f 4d04 f Jessops Glossy**** qDLLName32=E_DU15CE.DLL L dL 2EPSON Stylus Photo 1290 ****" d??U} $ } $ } $ j        8 " 9 # 0 1       :     .
