STEP 1 - Scaling the Pepakura Files

Download and install Pepakura Designer - Sourced HERE

It'll cost about $38USD plus exchange and it's worth the investment.

The viewer works fine but if you need to change the scale of your product to fit you, buy the Designer.

Download and extract your Pepakura files somewhere on your PC.

Open Pepakura Designer - Open your files
You'll something similar to this window.

Next take the tape measure and place it on your head. You'll be measuring chin to the top of your head. Measure in centimeters (CM) or millimeters (MM) not inches. Pepakura Designer uses MM, so if you measured your head to be 28CM convert to MM using this formula - #CM X 10 = #MM

28CM X 10 = 280MM

Now that we have the height of your head we can input this into Pepakura Designer.

Click on 2D Menu - Change Scale - Set Scale...

In Height we type in 280 and leave the rest as defaults. Leave Change Font Size of Text as checked, hit OK

The pieces have changed size to accommodate the new scale.
