Description
Patch Pocket Corduroy Trousers
The Ellen Pants are a corduroy trouser with patch pockets at the front and a leg cut wide from the hip.
A waistband sits at the waist with belt loops round it, and a fly closes the front with a zip and a shield behind it so nothing shows through the opening. Patch pockets are folded at the top and stitched onto each front rather than cut in, and the leg falls straight and wide from there to the floor.
A wide-wale corduroy is what this is cut for, heavy enough that the leg hangs straight.

How to print it
Open the file in Adobe Reader
Use the A4 or US Letter file. Adobe Reader is free, and it is the only reader that handles the size layers correctly.
Switch off the sizes you don't need
Open the layers panel on the left and leave only your size visible. You will use far less paper and ink, and the pieces are easier to cut.
Set scaling to 100%
Choose Actual Size, and make sure Fit to Page or Shrink to Fit is switched off. This is what keeps the pattern true to size.
Print page one and measure the test square
If the square measures correctly, your settings are right. If not, check the scaling and print page one again before going further.
Print the remaining pages and assemble
Line up the registration marks, tape the sheets together, and follow the assembly diagram that came with your files.
Prefer a copy shop? Use the A0 file
Hand over the A0 file and ask for 100% scale with no tiling. One sheet, no taping, nothing to assemble.
