Look at the PDF page size
Open the PDF and check the page size before you order. A plan prints to scale when that page is the sheet you order. A 24×36 page printed on 24×36 paper stays at the scale the author drew. If the PDF was exported with “fit to page,” the drawing is already smaller or larger than the title block claims, and we print the page as it is.
We print six sheets: 17×22, 18×24, 22×34, 24×36, 30×42, and 36×48. The price does not change with the sheet. Black and white is $1.95 per sheet and color is $3.75 per sheet, at any of those sizes. A 36×48 sheet costs the same per sheet as a 17×22 sheet.
We print from a PDF or image (PDF recommended). On the upload page, each page of the PDF shows as a thumbnail with the page number and the sheet size. Use that list to catch a letter-size cover, a blank page, or a page that is not one of the six sheets before you pay. We do not redraw the set.
ARCH and ANSI are not the same sheet
18×24 is ARCH C. 24×36 is ARCH D. 30×42 is ARCH E1. 36×48 is ARCH E. On the engineering side, 17×22 is ANSI C and 22×34 is ANSI D. The names look alike. The paper is not. ARCH D is not ANSI D, and ordering the wrong one changes the scale.
If the title block says ARCH D, order 24×36. Printing that file on 18×24 makes the drawing smaller than the author intended. If the title block says ANSI D, order 22×34. Matching the PDF page size to the sheet is what keeps the scale bar honest on site.
The file you upload is the file we print. If the page size in the PDF is wrong, export it again at the sheet you want, at 100 percent, and upload that PDF. A second file in the same order can be a different size. Each page is still one sheet at the flat rate.
One price, then the tube
Print My Plans prints blueprints and construction plans. There is no size upcharge. Mix 18×24 sheets and 24×36 sheets in one order and each sheet is still $1.95 in black and white or $3.75 in color. Count the PDF pages, not the buildings on the sheet.
Order by 3 PM ET and the order ships the same day on a business day. Prints ship rolled in a tube. Orders over $95 ship free by 2-day air to the lower 48 states. The tube is how a full-size sheet arrives without a fold through the title block.
Print My Plans is in Toms River, NJ. If a sheet size looks wrong after the tube arrives, you have 7 days after delivery to ask for a refund or a reprint. Email support@printmyplans.com or call (732) 701-7919 and have the order number ready.
A quick check before you upload
Read the page size in the PDF, then read the title block. Those two should name the same sheet. ARCH C is 18×24. ARCH D is 24×36. ARCH E1 is 30×42. ARCH E is 36×48. ANSI C is 17×22. ANSI D is 22×34. If they disagree, trust the page size in the file, because that is the sheet we print.
Black and white linework is $1.95 per sheet. A color legend on the same page is a color sheet at $3.75. You can mix both in one PDF order. They still ship rolled in a tube, and the flat rate does not change because the sheet got bigger.
Same-day shipping is for orders placed by 3 PM ET on a business day. After that, the order waits for the next business day. Free 2-day air applies when the print order is over $95 and the address is in the lower 48. Questions about a page size go to support@printmyplans.com or (732) 701-7919.
