Open layoutWhat tiled printing does
A tiled print divides one large design into smaller printable sections. Each section is printed on a separate sheet, then the sheets are lined up by row and column to recreate the full image at a larger physical size.
How it works
Choose the finished poster size, select the paper size, preview how many pages are needed, print the PDF at 100 percent scale, then assemble the pages in order. Cut marks and labels make alignment easier.

Tiled printing is often used for event posters, birthday signs, classroom boards, campaign signs, photo walls, garage sale notices, art prints, maps, and DIY wall decor.

Tiled printing FAQ
What is tiled printing?
Tiled printing is a method for printing a large image across multiple smaller pages. Each page contains one tile of the larger image, and the printed pages are assembled into a larger poster.
Can I use tiled printing with a normal printer?
Yes. Tiled printing is useful when you only have a home or office printer but want a larger poster. Print each page at actual size, then align the tiles in rows and columns.
What paper sizes work for tiled posters?
Common paper sizes include A4, A3, Letter, and A5. Larger paper sizes use fewer sheets, while smaller paper sizes can be easier to print on standard printers.
Does PrintTiler create tiled PDF files?
