I want to create a worksheet that I can use to design a garden.
The "for-real" garden measures 23 feet wide and 17 feet long.
How do I convert those measurements so the worksheet can be printed
on a sheet of legal-size paper?
How do I make each cell equivalent to one foot square?
Try scaling! Set up your sheet like graph paper (small square cells)
and decide what dims each cell represents on the x/y grid. If you
determine you have n cells on the 14" length, and n cells on the 8.5"
width then just assign a value to the height/width of a cell.
FYI:
You'd have better luck using Tabloid size (11x17) if your
width-to-length ratio on legal size doesn't jive with your actual
garden dims.
