If you were resizing AWI flags in MicrosoftWord, what would be the dimensions for the entire flag (not just one side) in
28 mm.
How high?
How long ?(both sides, remember).

I like my flags on the larger size like GMB.
Anyone know the size of GMB flags?

Same thing for 40 MM flags. What size?

Thanks in advance.

The 23rd Foot – Royal Welsh Fusiliers flag I have from GMB measures 1.5" x 1.75". It really is close to square, but the length is just a bit longer.

Flags were usually about 6' square iirc. I always make them just a bit larger than the figure scale. For 15mm, I usually make them 16mm "tall." We have really good color printers at work. I print them in B&W first then play around with the percentage reduction until I get the size right. Then I send them to the color printer. For 28mm I make the dimension 30mm.
