Printing

Overlap

Specifies the minimum amount of duplicated information you want printed on each tile for ease in

assembly. The Overlap option uses the unit of measure specified for the document. The value should be greater than
the minimum nonprinting margins for the printer. You can specify up to half the size of the shortest side of the
document page to overlap. For example, tiles for a page that measures 11-by-17 inches (279.4mm-by-431.8mm) can
overlap up to 5.5 inches (139.7mm).

Labels

Includes the PDF name, date of printing, and tile coordinate on every sheet. For example, Page 1 (1,1) means

row 1, column 1 of the first page. Tile coordinates are used for reassembling the tiles.

Cut Marks

Prints marks on each corner of a tiled page for ease of assembly. Use this option in conjunction with the

Overlap option. When you specify an overlapping edge and then superimpose those edges, you can use the cut
marks to line up the tiles.

Tile Only Large Pages

Tiles only oversized pages and prints standard pages as is.
