I did the 4 X 4, and my printer printed 16 sheets, but four of them did not print correctly. They printed blank. These four were the pages on RIGHT side, the far right column of pages from top to bottom, or last one on the right of each row (not sure how it is most clear - hope you get the picture - see below). The other 12 pages, first three columns of pages, printed fine.

I did this: Print -- Clicked Preferences -- Clicked Enlarge (print a poster) -- Clicked Choose Enlargement Level -- Clicked 4 X 4, 16 pages -- Clicked pages to Print: Selected ALL.

Here's how it looked when put together:

Secu
Bor
SECU
TA

I had the same thing happen to me. The posters are 24 length x 18 height. Therefore, you need to print using the Landscape Orientation on your printers.

I'm trying to write some instructions but my stupid computer shut down.

Okay, four attempts and I finally was able to get it to come out right.

I did same thing I said in earlier post quoted above here, PLUS Dixie's instruction to select "Landscape", PLUS Lynne's instruction to REDUCE size to 30%. It printed fine. I used same poster - "Secure Our Borders, Secure Our Taxes".

I might be able to reduce to 50%, it would be larger print than 30% is, and might still fit. But 30% on my computer turned out adequate size for a sign.

Hi, everyone!

builditnow,

Thanks for working so hard on this.
I'm going to hi-light that in the instructions.

Thank you HoosierMama!

I was able to print off Posters D & F. I had to save to a folder, open it up in MS Office Picture Mgr, set the printer preferences to landscape and fit to page. They look good.
