PDF printing question

[bkvail]

I want to print a picture that is in a PDF
http://www.dfa.uidaho.edu/parking/Maps/Final Campus Map 08-09.pdf

I don't want it to print on one page so I can't read the small print. Is there a way to print it in like 4 pages to tape together to make a larger map?

My oldest son is off to college this fall, and mom is in panic mode right now, LOL!

The only way I can think if is to copy portions of the PDF into MS Word and print accordingly. See the button with the camera with the dotted around it? Click it and click and drag from a corner of map to the middle point. This will create a copy that can be pasted into MS Word (or whatever program you use). Repeat this until you get all four sections. You can print the pages from MS Word and tape them together. Unfortunately, I am not sure how to make Adobe print one page into four sheet.

Good luck!

hmm - my Adobe doesn't have the camera icon - is it a plug-in perhaps? What version do you have? Mine is 8.1.4

Not sure this is the best way, but...

Go to tools->marquee zoom

Use this tool to select 1/4 of the page

Go to file->Print->and select 'Current View' from the print range box

Now it will print just your selected area. (You see the little preview change when you make the selection)

Do this 3 more times and you'll have the whole map. Just be careful to select the same dimensions. It does tell you what zoom level you're at, so use the same one each time and it should match up with a little trimming.

OK, I found a 'poster' printing option in my printer options - it's printing now, so I think it will work doing it this way
