Description-en: scale and tile PDF images/pages to print on multiple pages
Pdfposter can be used to create a large poster by building it from
multiple pages and/or printing it on large media. It expects as input a
PDF file, normally printing on a single page. The output is again a
PDF file, maybe containing multiple pages together building the
poster. The input page will be scaled to obtain the desired size.
.
This is much like poster does for Postscript files, but working with PDF.
Since sometimes poster does not like your files converted from PDF. :-)
Indeed pdfposter was inspired by poster. For more information please refer
to the manpage or visit the project homepage
