This software allows one to stretch a PDF document or raster image across multiple pages that can then be printed on a common inkjet or laser printer, cut and glued together into a larger poster.

It has a gui that actually makes some sense. I find this very important in a tool that produces a graphical output.

What is Plakativ?

Features

Plakativ is German for "striking" or "eye-catching" and comes from the German word "Plakat" which means poster in English.

Plakativ allows one to create a poster using one of three different approaches:

  • I want a poster that fits into size X
  • I want a poster Y times the input page page area
  • I have Z pages of paper and want to print the biggest possible poster on them

It offers a GUI based on tkinter, a command line interface and can be used as a Python module. Everything is inside a single file.
