L3P output uses the exact same scale and coordinate system as LDraw, so to
place the part, figure out where the center of the sticker should go (in
LEdit, MLCAD, whatever). To scale the sticker, remember that there are 20
LDU per stud, and 8 LDU per plate height. In order to maintain the aspect
ratio of the sticker, you may need to do a bit of calculation.

| (...) Cool, thanks. One thing I just thought of though... the sticker isn't rectangular, it actually would be an ellipse... does that make a difference? (23 years ago, 3-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.ray)
