Had a word woth a guy at work he is willing to have a go at autocading a target he also has a plotter so they can be printed almost any size up to 30 feet long.

Do we want a 300yd or 600yd for starters.

I'd say 300 (yds/m) to begin with. sign92

Forbie has done some good examples here http://www.full-bore.co.uk/viewtopic.ph ... 8&start=30 about half way down (and on the previous page as well).

I have not forgotten about the targets and neither as the guy at work we have got a bit of a crisis on at the moment next week should be quieter.

We had a quick look to day he seems to think that creating the targets the same size and dimensions as a F class 300yard target can be done in autocad.
To do them in colour in any numbers would be expensive you would have to buy the inks for the plotter. We only use it for Engineering drawings so we only use black ink.
The targets are larger than A2 if I have got the numbers right size wise. So you would need a plotter to be able to print them.
The rolls of paper for a plotter are not cheap either.
Any way we are going to have a go with autocad and make some up. If they look OK I will print some off and see what they look like. We might be able to save the finished item some were as a file.
We will see how it goes any way.
