You'll need the following instructions for obtaining and printing the pocket pattern piece.

The following instructions were written for Windows 95 users. They should also work for previous versions of Windows as well, assuming those users can find and start the Windows Paint program.

• Click on this link to download the file POCKET.BMP to your computer. Be sure to make note of the folder where you store the file.
• Click the Start button, point to Programs, point to Accessories, then Click Paint to start the Windows Paint program.
• Once Paint is running, click File, click Open, double-click the folder where you saved the file POCKET.BMP, then double click the file POCKET.BMP.
• In Paint, click File, click Page Setup, set all 4 page margins to .25 inches, then click OK. (Note: Paint may change the bottom margin setting slightly hihger, depending on your printer brand and model.)
• In Paint, click File, then click Print.
• The pocket pattern should print on one page, and should nearly fill the page.
• If you'd like your pocket bigger, you can add 1/2" to all sides of the pocket pattern piece when cutting your pocket pieces.
