Help with PinGap
Print at 100%
A sight tape only works at its real size. Your printer may try to shrink the page to fit.
- 1In PinGap, open Tape and tap Print.
- 2In the print options, set Scale to 100%. Turn off "Fit to page" or "Shrink to fit".
- 3Print on plain paper, then measure the 100 mm bar next to the tape with a ruler.
- 4If the bar is not exactly 100 mm, calibrate your printer before cutting the tape out.
Calibrate your printer
Most printers are slightly off, and often by a different amount across and down the page. Calibrating once fixes it for every tape printed on that printer.
Horizontal bar
99.2 mm
Vertical bar
100.4 mm
- 1Open Tape, tap "Calibrate your printer" and print the calibration page at 100%.
- 2Measure the horizontal and vertical 100 mm bars with a steel ruler.
- 3Type both lengths into PinGap, for example 99.2 mm and 100.4 mm.
- 4Tap Save. Tapes printed on that printer now use the correction.
Choose your sight-in marks
Two marks are enough for a full tape. Where you shoot them decides how accurate it is.
35+ yd
first mark
20 yd
apart
- Shoot your first mark at 35 yd or farther.
- Keep your marks at least 20 yd apart, for example 40 and 60 yd. The usual 20 and 60 yd pair works too, and PinGap shows how sure the far end is.
- Read the sight scale after your group is centered, not after a single arrow.
- A third mark at 40 yd or farther tightens the far end of the tape.
