A 1931 article from The Melliand Textile Monthly on how to enlarge small sketches or woven samples onto point (design) paper for Jacquard card cutting. It covers the squared-sketch coordinate method, tracing from cloth with celluloid sheets, the pantograph, and projection lanterns, including the use of a mirror to correct the reversed image. It also treats ribbon and label designs woven face down and the Saentis enlarging machine. Illustrated with sketches, point paper designs, woven samples and apparatus diagrams.
