Weird tiled printing

[joe_l]

My test document is an A3 document to be printed to A4 on a HP M751. The overlapping and the number of pages feels wrong. See attached images. My personal favourite is 300 mm overlap. 1 of 0 pages? Please Serif, add additional positioning marks while printing. Printing A0 with A4 and glueing them together is no joy.

Another nice one. The maximum overlapping is 2147483647 mm resulting in:

Ok, even with an overlapping of 1 mm there have to be three pages. But the positioning is funny anyway.

BUT the printer is not capable of borderless printing, so 0 mm overlap has to result in 3 pages also.

You could do something like this as a workaround ( I just realised that I didn't consider printing margins when making the bellow ._. )

Hey @joe_l,

There does evidently appear to be problems with the app calculating the overlap pages for tiled printing past a certain point, In this example of the A3 doc printing on A4 sheets it can't work out what to do if you set the overlap to a value that's equal to or greater than 210mm (The width of A4) so it just displays '1/0' like in your earlier screenshot. For comparison, on Mac the page preview just goes blank when the overlap is set to 210mm, I'll get this logged up with the developers and also reference it appears to ignore margins/borderless print settings for tiled printing.
