Numicon Display Resources: Calculating
The resources are set out on A4 pdfs and are designed to be printed out and then cut up and used in whichever way you like. The thumbnail images below show the content of each of the resources. They are not to scale and don't represent the layout of the pdfs.
Important note about printing pdfs
Most printers default to print pdf files within the printable area of the page. This effectively means that pdf files are automatically scaled down to fit the page. In order to print our display resources at the correct size you will need to choose ‘page setup’ and select the appropriate page scaling options (either ‘None’ or ‘100%’ depending on the application and printer you are using).
