Field notes

The service uses a sheet of letter paper in the photograph as a scale reference, then turns the detected edge into a vector pattern with separate layers for cut lines, notches and internal lines. Its output package includes a tiled PDF with a 0.4-inch overlap and test square, plus HPGL PLT for plotters and AAMA/ASTM DXF for apparel CAD systems. The page says users can correct the result in a browser before downloading.
