A better solution (which I think the PDF format can support) would be to use different small windows on top of just one copy of the content. But I'm not fluent enough in the PDF format or programming to make such a tool. I'm not sure if any of the suggested tools that can do it, but pdfposter looks promising.<br><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Adding crop marks or registration marks to faciliate joining the tiles would probably be easy (I've once written an imposition script in perl for postscript, and just used perl to insert fold marks and signature numbers into the postscript).<br><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">/Peter<br></div></div>
