Larry A. Blakely Posted February 23, 2015 Report Posted February 23, 2015 Can anyone tell me how to print out a larger wordart that needs 2 pages to print the full image? I printed 1/2 of the image and then moved it over to print the 2nd half so I could paste the two together. It worked ok but wondered if the program allowed 2 page printing with index marks?? Quote

me5269 Posted February 24, 2015 Report Posted February 24, 2015 I don't usually print out of inkscape, I'll resize the page to fit the picture (in inkscape) then save it as a pdf. Open the pdf, select 'file' - 'print'. In the print window pop-up under the 'page size and handling' section I select 'poster'. you can set the overlap gap and show cut marks. Hope this helps.

Larry A. Blakely Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) Thanks Travis. I knew you could give me the answer. I guess I've made enuf banners that I understood the idea. Nice to see we were on the same wavelength. Just hadn't thought of the crosshairs. Thanks again for the informative videos.
