I think i got it but any feed back would be nice . I just had my printer do poster print and it cuts it down but the lines to it are not that clear.

Hi there carolk69, welcome.

I think a lot of people tape them together. What I do take all the pages for the bottom rows and staple them into a booklet (much like a cross stitch pattern), then the pages for the next rows, and so on.
This way I'm working with just one booklet at a time, and it doesn't take over my space, or seem overwhelming.

Hope that helps a bit.

Sherry

Thank You , i'll try it out your way. sounds a lot easier to handle than one very large piece.

Carol,

Welcome!

I like Sherry's idea, too. She's right...some people tape all of the pages together, but in the case of 30 pages, I think it makes more sense to staple groups of rows together...less bulk and confusion!

FYI, we do have a feature in development, to resize patterns for printing so you can fit more lines on a PDF page.
