BeadWanStep by step
- Finish conversion or open a saved work and enter its export page.
- Set grid lines, color codes, coordinates and mirroring for the way you plan to work.
- Save the PNG and CSV if you need an image and a shopping checklist.
- For paper or PDF, select A4, check orientation and page count, then confirm the browser print destination.
PNG: the full chart
PNG preserves the chart as an image. Grid lines, color codes, coordinates and mirroring follow your export choices. Large charts can be difficult to read when reduced to a phone screen; zoom in or use A4 pages for hands-on work.
CSV: the quantities
The material list is for reviewing colors and bead counts in spreadsheet software. It is not a complete editable artwork backup. Confirm the palette and codes before using the list to purchase supplies.
A4: a working copy
Choose portrait or landscape, check the page preview and confirm the print dialog. Large patterns are split into sections with page and coordinate information. PDF is produced through the browser's print destination rather than a separate cloud conversion service.
Do not assume a printout is life-size
The chart is a reading guide. Printed cell spacing depends on the layout and printer scaling. Do not place a pegboard on it expecting an exact physical match unless you have measured the output and verified the scale.
Common questions
Why did the print window not open?
Your browser may have blocked the new window. Allow the print window for beadwan.com and retry from the export page.
Can I edit the original from a CSV?
The CSV is a material list, not the full pixel arrangement. Keep your saved work and the original exported chart as well.
