Costume Size in the Downloaded Filename

The downloaded PDF filenames include the costume name and size.

We offer separate sizes for children, ladies, and men, so the notation in the filename varies slightly.

This can be confusing, so we explain it here.

Filename notation table

As shown in the table: “C” indicates Children, “L” indicates Ladies, and “M” indicates Men. The letter is followed by the size number (for example, “C120” for Children size 120).

For example, a Men’s size L file will have “ML” after the costume name.

However, Ladies’ L and Ladies’ LL sizes are often confused.

Many people think they have downloaded Ladies’ LL when they have actually downloaded Ladies’ L.

In our system, “LL” (two L’s) indicates Ladies’ L size, and “LLL” (three L’s) indicates Ladies’ LL size. Please double-check the filename to avoid confusion!

Incorrect print settings example in Adobe Reader

The image will automatically be resized to fit the printable area, which can cause a printing error.

To avoid this issue, please follow these steps:

Correct print settings guide in Adobe Reader

(3) Click [Advanced].

Advanced print settings in Adobe Reader

(4) Check [Print as Image].

(5) Click [OK].

The step (4) "Print as Image" is optional but recommended.

In rare cases, depending on your printer model or operating system, you may experience issues like broken or missing lines.

To prevent this, it's safer to select [Print as Image] when printing.

Please make sure to print at [Actual Size] or [100%], not [Fit to Paper Size].

The pattern prints from the top left to the bottom right. Line up the sheets in order and tape them together.
