Designed for inkjet printers, the sheets shrink to about 20% of their original dimensions and thicken roughly fivefold when heated, turning flat artwork into sturdy, miniature pieces ideal for craft projects, gifts, and prototypes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I print and prepare the Auihiay shrink plastic sheets?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePrinting is straightforward: use the frosted side of the sheet in an inkjet printer and design at full size knowing the final piece will shrink.
