Layout

When Poster is selected, other Layout tab options are unavailable.

Note: Pages per poster displays the unit of measurement in inches or millimeters. You can change the Units setting in the User Settings dialog box, accessed from Device Settings.

Use Poster Settings to select options, in any combination to make it easier to create a poster. These options print visual cues on the poster sheets that provide help in cropping and assembling the pages.

Overlap edges

This selection duplicates the edges of document data on adjoining sheets. Poster appearance is improved when the edges overlap slightly. Select the check box, then type or select a value between 0.00 and 1.20 inches (0.0 and 30.4 mm). This option reduces the final poster size slightly.

Print crop marks

This selection prints a border at the edges of each poster sheet. You can crop each sheet on the border before assembling the sheets. This option ensures that data on adjoining sheets matches precisely.

Print assembly marks

This selection prints numbers at the edges of each sheet, matching numbers on adjoining sheets. Assemble each sheet edge to the same numbered edge on another sheet.

Use Print format to print a proof sheet, along with the poster, to guide you in assembling the printed poster sheets.
