Merge differently sized drawings to DIN A0 pages?

Postby srynoname » Mon Mar 20, 2017 5:48 am

Hello all,

I have multiple SVG drawings of different size. Now I want to plot them on an A0 plotter. Several of my drawings could fit on one DIN A0 page instead of one DIN A0 page for each drawing. Is there any tool that takes some drawings (or their PDF export) as input and arranges them to DIN A0 page format, so that the needed amount of pages is minimized?

Have a nice day.

I'm using Inkscape 0.92.2 (5c3e80d, 2017-08-06), 64 bit win8.1

The Inkscape manual has lots of helpful info! http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/
