How to do it

  1. 1

    Add your file

    Add the page you want big — a plan, a chart, a map, anything that has to be readable from across a room.

  2. 2

    Set it up the way you want

    Choose how many sheets across. The page is divided into tiles with a small overlap on each edge, because a poster assembled from tiles with no overlap shows every seam as a white line.

  3. 3

    Download the result

    Print the tiles on ordinary paper, then trim along the overlap and tape them together. A four-by-three grid on A4 gives you something close to A0.

Questions about Print a poster across pages

Why is there an overlap between tiles?
Because printers do not print to the very edge, and hands do not align paper perfectly. The overlap gives you something to trim to and something to glue under, which is the difference between a poster and a jigsaw with gaps.
How big can I actually go?
As big as you have paper and patience for. Beyond about four sheets across, aligning them by hand becomes the hard part rather than the printing.
Will the image get blurry?
It depends on your source. Vector content — text, lines, charts drawn as vectors — stays sharp at any size. A photograph enlarged four times will show the enlargement, because the detail was never in the file to begin with.
