Basically it's a big JPEG that I want to print over 4 pages, the dimension of the image is about 16x16 inches. so it'll fit on 4 pages... problem is, i only have a 8x11 printer. Can I divide up the image into 4 parts and make it print out the lines with the targets so I can just cut it out of the paper and reassemble it?

I think Word or WIndows XP does that automatically, try doing it in black and white first and see if it works. I know it does because my dad printed out a picture of me sleeping and it covered 2 pages

Isn't there some sort of print preview you can use to see if will turn out the way you want? I'm no photoshop person so i don't know.

I think somebody really found alt.binaries.scanmaster and wants to make some lifesize material.

I *believe* ACDSee allowed this ... not sure of any step-by-step directions though.

i could cut it into two 8X8s, do some cutting. Its your best option if you want to do it yourself
