poster on A4 printer

Postby namichel » Fri May 15, 2015 11:08 pm

Dear All

I'd like to create a poster composed of multiple A4 pages.
So I created an A0 document and now I try to print it.

I don't find any options to make Inkscape print automatically multiple pages.
So I tried to print on PDF and then to use pdfposter, but I'm not able to set correct values.

I'm working on Ubuntu

Any idea ?

Thanks !

Never mind, I found the solution.

With the pdf attached, this command work :
$> pdfposter -p4x2a4 qqout.pdf ww.pdf

I obtain the pdf by "print as pdf" from inskape.
And it's A1 format here

Thanks

I use Posterazor whenever I need to print in tiles. It's in the repository.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install posterazor
