* Package name : plakativ Version : 0.2 Upstream Author : Johannes 'josch' Schauer <jo...@mister-muffin.de> * URL : https://gitlab.mister-muffin.de/josch/plakativ * License : GPL3 Programming Lang: Python Description : print poster from PDF across multiple pages to glue together You have a page as a PDF and you want to make a poster from it but you only have a normal office printer, so you need to print the PDF across multiple pages that you can glue together later. The resulting PDF will contain a lossless version of the original, split across multiple pages. In addition to a regular grid, it can also generate complex layouts that make nearly optimal use of paper area to avoid paper waste. In contrast to PosteRazor, the input is a PDF file and not a raster image. This is especially important for posters, as scaling up raster images will create pixelation artifacts. In contrast to pdfposter there is a GUI that previews the result, borders for glueing are taken into account, no superfluous empty pages are produced and the complex layouter will save paper.
