That leaves you with one game board sized image. Select everything that’s left of the board, and rasterize it (At least 300DPI). Especially, because somewhere in there are 7 open paths, and if you go to engrave those, it could ruin the entire project (trying to engrave open paths can lead to funky results). The best thing here, would be to rasterize it, I believe. Then, I’d hide the puzzle paths themselves, which leaves you with just the monopoly board design. The other pieces look like they’ll fit OK the way that they are. Up to you, those are the two options though. You could maybe leave it like it is, and then rotate the elements to fit the bed when you’re done. It measures about 11.2' from a hair below the bottom of that interlock up to the top of the board, so you’ll need to resize, or move it so it goes below the 10.95' threshold. I know you want to do this yourself, so I’ll hold off on doing anything to the file.īut, I’ll throw a few things out there at ya.įirst thing, the right interlock going across, you’ll need to resize that a bit smaller, or move it up.

Save with name “Lastname-Original.png” The resultant PNG file is your finished figure.It opened as 24x24' for me. Set background to not be transparent (increase alpha channel to 255).

Set the Page Size: Open Document Properties.

Then use Fill and Stroke tool to set the line width and add arrow head to start (or end).

Create arrows: Use the Line Tool to draw a straight line segment (click, click-click).

Use align and distribute to put labels at corners of each panel. Finish each label: Replace each letter as necessary.Duplicate label to make more: Select both, duplicate object, move.Use align and distribute to center letter. Construct one label: Make a square box, make both stroke and fill the same (black or white).Use Align and Distribute (switch to 'relative to first selected'). Composite your images to make your design: Lock proportions to avoid stretching.Hold the “shift” key to select multiple objects. Note things can be “above” or “below” others. Import all your images: Either Link or Embed.Do this in a bitmap editing program (e.g. What is your figure going to look like? Should you crop imagery ahead of time? Do you need to adjust image or exposure? (Note: Some journals don't allow digital manipulation of imagery). Labels and ArrowsĬreating Figures: Part 3.
