Yeps. There are lots of ways to do this. I used wfret. StewMac's calc. I even made my own spreadsheet to do this. Tons of ways.
ALL: one thing to remember if you print some sort of template off on a printer, that template might not be exactly 100%!
Print off a copy and MEASURE the 12th fret position with a good [read: reliable] ruler. Some rulers might be off by as much as .025". Measure and make sure the 12th is exactly 1/2 the scale length! If not, print out the template again at 'X' percent size until it is. My printer prints at 97% even when it should be 100% so I have to print at 103% to compensate. This is one gotcha that I found with home printers.
