Rick, I had the original A3 sheets scanned to PDF files by a so called pro. (Still got them. Full size model maybe soon.)
I then opened them one page at a time in 'The GIMP' to trim off the excess area and re-saved as a PDF.
I then used 'PDFTKbuilder' to stitch all the pages together as one multi-page PDF.
Then told my A4 printer to 'fit to page'.
Result = one half scale Osprey. It built up fine with no scaling or fit problems.
It looks sooo much better in Kev's P.shopped picture though ...
