You can print a large format document, such
as a poster or banner, by splitting the page across multiple sheets
of paper (called “tiling”). The tiling option calculates how many
sheets of paper are needed. You can adjust the size of the original
to best fit the paper and specify how much each “tile” overlaps.
You can then piece together the tiles.�
You can also scale
up a standard-sized document and print it on multiple pages.
- Choose File > Print.
- Do one of the following depending on your version of Acrobat:
(Acrobat 10.1.2)
Click Poster.
(Acrobat 10.1.1 or earlier)
From the Page Scaling menu, choose Tile All Pages if all pages of
the document are oversized. If some of the pages are standard-sized,
choose Tile Large Pages.
- (Optional) Set any of these options, referring to the
Preview image to check the output results:
- Tile Scale
- Adjusts the scaling. The scaling affects how the sections
of the PDF page map to the physical sheet of paper. (Click in the
Overlap field to force the preview to redraw with the new scale
value.)
- Overlap
- Specifies the minimum amount of duplicated information
you want printed on each tile for ease in assembly. The Overlap
option uses the unit of measure specified for the document. The
value should be greater than the minimum nonprinting margins for
the printer. You can specify up to half the size of the shortest
side of the document page to overlap. For example, tiles for a page that
measures 11-by-17 inches (279.4mm-by-431.8mm) can overlap up to
5.5 inches (139.7mm).
- Labels
- Includes the PDF name, date of printing, and tile coordinate
on every sheet. For example, Page 1 (1,1) means row 1, column 1
of the first page. Tile coordinates are used for reassembling the
tiles.
- Cut Marks
- Prints marks on each corner of a tiled page for ease
of assembly. Use this option in conjunction with the Overlap option.
When you specify an overlapping edge and then superimpose those
edges, you can use the cut marks to line up the tiles.
- (Acrobat 10.1.2) Tile
Only Large Pages
- Tiles only oversized pages and prints standard pages
as is.
