<p>Enclosure Pro is pretty straightforward to use and presents very few menu options that should be familiar to any effects pedal builder. Experiment for a few minutes and you’ll get the hang of it.</p>

<h2>Export to PDF</h2>
96
-
<p>Exporting a layout to PDF provides detailed header and footer information about the enclosure, as well as a calibration mark to measure and ensure that your design prints at 100% if you decide to print it.</p>
97
-
<p>It is recommended that you export larger enclosure formats to PDF rather than printing them directly, as printing from PDF provides many more page formatting options than printing directly from the Enclosure Pro. Always open PDFs in a PDF reader (such as Adobe Acrobat) and not in a web browser.</p>

<p>Exporting a drill template to PDF provides detailed header and footer information about the enclosure, as well as a calibration mark to measure and ensure that your design prints at 100% if you decide to print it.</p>
96

<p>When you export a drill template, it will display a set of instructions for printing the template that is true-to-size. Always open PDFs in a PDF reader (such as Adobe Acrobat) and not in a web browser.</p>
