Easy way to match listed dimensions into Lightburn

[deeve (Dave)]

Hello I would like the cut the attached pdf to the dimensions listed to make a drill template and am curious is there is an easy way to convert this into something where the dimensions are quickly matched. I think I could pretty easily replicate it (I just need to have the holes placed correctly) but am always looking for a better way of doing things. Not sure if it is possible with this file as I did noticed when I was trying to do it through trial and error that once enlarged it gets kind of pixelated.

Thanks!

Simplest way i would imagine would be to open PDF as source

Trace the image if needed

Then use known dimensions as a datum to adjust size so it matches perfectly (Using ruller tool helps)

Use the TRACE command to convert from .jpeg to SVG.

Lock the aspect ratio

Draw a rectangle that is 25mm long. Stretch the object by the corner until your rectangle fits between the reference marks for the top holes.

Lock the shape

Cut your template.
