Print large pdf image on multiple page - How to ?

[palmer]

Hi There,
I have a large pdf image (4 times A4) and I would like to know how
to get it print indeed on 4 separated pages.

The printer/acrobat (6.0) keeps on shrink it on 1 A4 page or just
printing 1/4 of it.

Any suggestion ?

Thanks

Palmer

You may need a different printer driver which supports banner mode...

Check out FinePrint (http://www.fineprint.com)

You may need a different printer driver which supports banner mode...

or "poster" mode.

See here for example...

Unfortunately the Canon driver does not have this feature.

See next post, I found a solution.

Thanks

To whom may be interested

I found a solution:

1) Open the file pdf in Photoshop choosing 300dpi raster-to-pixel and
size of 29cm x 43.4 cm (2 times A4 = A3) ( It generates a 100Mb file !!)

2) Cut and paste an A4 slice in 2 different A4 300dpi empty image

3) print the 2 images on A4 paper

Of course involving a raster-to-pixel you can choose any format (eg:
A2=2xA3=4xA4) and print as big as you want.

Thanks to all

Hups ! I was wrong.

I found the right menu in the printer preferences.

Thanks CWatters
