this has nothing to do with photoshop but your printer settings. print the picture to pdf and then print it normally. except make sure shrink/expand to fit is unselected from the printer dialog box that pops up. from there you will then have to trim the paper to get what you want.
Hi,
I'd probably take in to Illustrator as it offers much better alignment/placement options and you can actually see properly what is going to be printed.
Sorry, I'm confused. Isn't there a tile pages setting in InDesign? This allows you to set the overlap so that when you glue them together, you can easily align the pages using a light table. That way you bring the image into a document set the same size as the image, and still print on A4 or letter-size, etc.
I have just found that I get better results when I do it by hand.
I started doing this in PageMaker which had a really bad tile function, it would sometimes print 4 pages of paper with a thin strip of the image along one side while leaving an inch wide margin on the other side when all that was needed was to move the image over a quarter of an inch.
I just kept doing it this way since I literally only take a few minutes and gives me complete control of how the image is placed on the sheets.
Next time I have to print something large I'll try the tile feature in InDesign and see if it works.
