Printing artwork
SirPoonga:
how does one print a tiled graphic.
ArcadeFX:
Why would you want to? I hope not to put in your cabinet. I think that would look really bad if you taped them all to gether.
Jonathan the Red:
Yep, taping several sheets together will look like ass. You'll inevitably have some overlap, which will be painfully visible when you illuminate it. Get some banner paper... it's basically 8.5" x 11" paper with each sheet joined to the next with fine perforations.
SirPoonga:
No, altimately I want to print out my full size side art and use it as a stencil.
Just answer the question.....

Two ways to do it:
1) Print it out on more than sheet of paper BUT make the individual pages seperate images and make the images overlap each other buy about 1/4 of an inch. Then line up the overlapping images and take a straight edge and a VERY sharp exacto knife and cut in the middle of the overlap area. This will trim off the right amount off each page and the edges will line up perfectly without a gap.
2) Go to Kinkos and have them print it out on a large media printer. I cost me about $9.00 to print out mine. (dont have them laminate it though, it will look like crap..all washed out)
