I feel stupid asking, but if it saves me time...

After a few months of learning Photoshop I finally have a map made of Endor (complete with Ewok tokens). I had to email it to my work computer and open it in Acrobat since I don't have a printer at home. Turns out the map is one big page so I can't print it.

Do I set page breaks in Photoshop or Acrobat? Can someone also help me determine where/how I should place page breaks?


I don't want to waste any more color ink than I have to fumbling through this.

This is one of the great frustrations of designing maps. Neither of those programs will allow direct pagination, at least in the versions I use. My mind-numbing workaround is to cut page-size chunks into new files and print them separately. Apparently Illustrator can handle this quite well, if you can find a copy at work or from a friend. Good luck.

You have photoshop, simply make slices of your work. Each slice saved as an image then pdf-ed. Collate all your pdfs into one file and presto. Done like dessert.
