Hi all,
New user here. I'm having difficulty with printing/exporting a document I have created. The document is a simple pattern I'd like to use for leatherwork. I have the dimensions on a document at about 15 1/2 by 15. I'm in the US and am using standard letter paper (8 1/2 by 11). I understand the image would break across pages but I'm not sure how to make that happen. I have read about tiled printing but can't seem to make it work. Not sure if I need to first export as a PDF then try to print that PDF...
I'm using a Windows desktop computer.
Thanks for any guidance!

Thanks for the quick reply. I only have Affinity Designer, although I have considered others especially if they would be helpful. When I tried tiling the first few times, I got one page that was sort of right then others that were only all black.
I ended up deleting the first attempt and starting anew. That resolved the pages being all black, but then I had an issue with many more pages coming out than I thought I had set up. I am sure this is a new-user-issue and will get better as I learn more.
What is the difference between "n-up" and "tile" when printing?
I will say that this is an amazing product and I look forward to learning more. Even with the short time I've been using it, I was able to get a great start doing that I hoped to! So much to learn though...
Thanks!
