I downloaded the postal m,atch target and am in the process of converting it to a 3 up pdf but am not sure of the dimensions. Should the jpg be an actual 3" X 5"?

this whole thing is really kind of informal .use what you want i'm not going to not grade your target just because its the wrong size.

I print the JPG on a 4x6 index card.

This will give you a 3x5 target with a border around it of 1/2 inch on all sides. I use the 1/2 border to staple to the target stand. I cut the border off after firing so it will be 3x5.

I print the other file DOC on the back of each target 4x6 index card. This is a form of all the information needed. It is centered inside the 3x5 portion.

If you or anyone else wants, I would be happy to mail you at least 10 printed targets. Just PM me your snail mail address. No charge.

I know time is short, so I would mail them out ASAP.

Thanks for that offeer. What I did is saved the picture from one of the threads and then used a publisher program to put three copies on an 8.5X11 page. That way I can just print them off three at a time on 8.5X11 67#bond and end up with three targets per page.

I thought they had to be a n exact size!

I've converted it to a 8.5X11 pdf file if anyone wants it it can be emailed or maybe a download here on graybeard but I don't know how to do that. Could also make it a download from my website too.
