Overlap for gluing
The sheets can overlap by 5, 10 or 20 mm, so the parts can be glued together without gaps.
Cut marks and sheet names
Marks show where to cut and where the neighbouring sheet goes. Every sheet carries its position, such as A1 or B2, and a small map of the poster.

Check the single sheets or the assembled poster with all its parts and glue areas before you print.
Several pages, several posters
Each selected page of the PDF becomes a poster of its own – choose all pages or just the ones you need.

Questions and Answers
How do I print a PDF as a poster?
Choose your PDF, pick a poster size or a number of sheets and click «Print». Print at actual size (100 %), cut off the top and left margins along the cut marks and glue the sheets so they overlap.
How many sheets do I need for A1 or A0?
That depends on the paper, the margins and the overlap. Choose the poster size and the paper you print on – the preview shows how many sheets you need.
Which setting do I choose in the print dialog?
Choose «Actual size» or «100 %», so the sheets are not scaled again and the parts fit together. Printing on one side is enough.
How do I put the poster together?
Cut off the top and left margins along the cut marks. Then lay each sheet with its cut edge on the mark of the neighbouring sheet and glue it.
Why is there a margin on every sheet?
Most printers cannot print right to the edge of the paper. With the margin nothing of the picture is lost: it is cut off or covered by the neighbouring sheet.
Can I save the poster as a PDF?
Yes. «Save as PDF» gives you the sheets as a PDF to print later or to take to a copy shop.
Is it free?
Yes. Printing posters with PDF24 is free, without registration and without watermarks.
