Okay, I can appreciate the desire to be thorough, but a 45 Mb .ZIP
package for what is essentially a cube (hellraiser Lament
Configuration puzzle cube, static) in a box?

http://csfgpapercraft.com/wp/?p=465

The .ZIP contains seven files:

a .PNG showing the finished model - 537 Kb
a .PDO for the model with lines - 14 Mb
a .PDF for the model with lines - 2.5 Mb
a .PDO for the model with no lines - 14 Mb
a .PDF for the model with no lines - 2.5 Mb
a .PDO for the model with lines and no textures - 14 Mb
a .PDF for the model with lines and no textures - 600 Kb

(for the last two, the textures are in the .PDO file, just turned off)

That's 47 Mb unZipped.

Why not just the one .PDO, in which the lines and textures can be
dealt with at the builder's end of things, and the three .PDF files
for the Mac types who can't all use Pepakura Viewer easily? Or replace
all that raster texture data with the vector data that it obviously
came from, and drop the .PDO files altogether?

I know 47 Mb isn't all that large in today's reckoning, but it's just
so bloody inefficient.

It *is* a good-looking model, though. :-)
