Printing a scale drawing from a Photo
#1
I had a search around but couldn't find any conclusive answers to what I'm trying to do. I'm new to the forum, so any help is very much appreciated. 

So, I need to produce patterns for making bicycle frame bags for my work. However not everyone lives local enough to do a physical drawing/pattern. So customers will email me a high res photo of their bike frame with a tape measure or ruler attached to the frame for scale.
My question is, how can I take this image from the customer and then using GIMP, make sure the image is at 1:1 scale and then print it out on multiple A4 pages? Is there even a way?

I'm very new to using GIMP so I'm completely lost at the moment.

If you can point me in the direction of any other topics or videos that may help that would also be great.
