Are there specific issues about how the patterns are printed that cause everyone problems? If not, whatever they change made to make some of you happy will make others unhappy. I prefer things published at 100% if practical.
Maybe what's needed is a comprehensive article with all the possible ways to copy and resize patterns of different sizes. I think there are a lot of those on the internet already. They don't have to be specific to Scroll Sawing.
As an exercise, I just made a copy of the big fish from the last issue using the method I mentioned above. It took about 10 minutes. I will admit that it was a minor challenge to copy because of how it was printed on the pull-out.
Edited to add that was typing this before Rolf posted his article. I do have a ledger size scanner/printer but I did not use that when I made a copy of the fish pattern I mentioned because I know most don't have one. For anyone interested it is a Brother MFC-8490 I picked up around 11 years ago.
