Lens Field of view chart

Hi to all,

Can someone teach me how to generate a lens FOV chart for APSC size DSLR? So that I can print it on Tracing paper.

This is an example:

You'll have to do your own drawing, but CCDCalc with do the math for you, once you feed it the numbers for your camera and scope.
