I have designed some patterns for friends and i want to send them via e-mail, I have tried to export the patterns in sections but i can't figure out the axis and I haven't got time.

When i had pcstitch 7 or 8 you could look at the print preview and then save that image but i can't see that option any more.

If i send the pattern as a pcstitch file will they be able to print it out by downloading the free pattern viewer? Or is there a way i can do what the older versions used to do.

At the moment, PatterViewer won't open PCStitch 9 files, much less PCStitch 10. It is supposed to be upgraded and that would solve your problem.

I suggest you get a free "virtual" printer such as PrimoPDF. With it installed, you just select it as the "printer" and print the pattern to a PDF file and then share that copy. NO problem figuring out the size of your different pages and sending multiple jpg files - just a single PDF file. It also automatically handles all instructions and symbol keys as well.

Remember - share ONLY your own completely self-designed patterns this way. Sharing any others is a violation of copyright.
