simple actually

Under File drop down menu, there are different Print options
including just printing straight from Pepakura.
there is a Print to PDF option.

No need for an standalone pdf printer

I have a MAC OS High Sierra 10.13.6

I wish to download and print PDO models.
However, "There is no application set to open this document...."

What is the safest application to download?

Thanks,

BP

Hi Bob.


Pepakura (the software for PDO files) only works in Windows.
You may need to install an application on your MAC that emulates the Windows environment and run Pepakura from there.

Here's how:

Unfortunately for those using Android and iOS devices, Pepakura is not available as a native client.

For those using desktop Apple computers, some success has been had using Windows OS emulators.

As for the mobile crowd, there is no version available, so you would have to use a PC in order to print or convert the files to your preferred file type

You can try my site here: Papermaker - Free papercraft software

First, import PDO file into PaperMaker: Clicking on the top left button > Import > PDO file.

Then export to PDF: top left button > Export > As PDF.

NOTE: After importing the PDO you might need to adjust position of unfolded parts a little, as they are not entirely match that of Pepakura.

Hope this help!
