TurboCooler Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Is there a way to print across multiple sheets of paper? The design I am working on is 16" by 16" I just want to print a proof across multiple sheets of paper. When I attempt to print it seems it want to print on a single sheet of paper and I see no option to print across multiple sheets of paper. Right now I have been exporting into another file format like PDF and using a PDF program to print but was hoping there was an easier way to do this.

Staff Lee D Posted January 18, 2017 Staff Share Posted January 18, 2017 Hi TurboCooler, After you have setup your printer and paper size, you can use the scaling option, as this increases the amount of pages, depending on how large your image is and how many sheets are required. However I've exported to PDF before and have used the poster print options as for the moment they give a better idea of what the output will be like.

TurboCooler Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 Thanks. The export and use Poster Option is what I continue to use. The other method does not give me what I want. Hopefully this is addressed in a future update. One of the features from AI that will make it hard for me to switch. I went back to AI this morning and used the tiling feature to exactly what I wanted.

PatternMaker Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Hi guys I to am looking into this. Would be great for me as I want to use Designer to make digital clothing patterns, I want to be able to export to .pdf and have all the pages separated. I also want to place markers on each page so I can line them up afterwards. Could we possibly get a developer to respond? I can guarantee you will get sales if we can use this for pattern making. Thank You. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

affi.usr Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Maybe Posteriza is a temporaly solution? But is only JPEG, PNG support when print. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
