How to Print a Poster Across Multiple Pages on Mac

The simplest way to print a large poster on a Mac is to create a multi-page PDF before opening the print dialog. Each PDF page becomes one tile of the assembled poster.

PrintTiler performs the page splitting in Safari, Chrome, or another modern browser, while the image remains on your device.

The Mac tiled-printing workflow

Upload the poster image, select the paper size and page grid, and export the tiled PDF. Open the PDF on your Mac, confirm that scaling is set to 100 percent, and print every page.

Arrange the printed sheets using the row and column labels before trimming or taping.
