Examples
===============================
These are some examples showing how to get a poster as you want.
.. include:: _examples1.txt
.. include:: _examples2.txt
For these examples we use two input pages:
.. figure:: _images/testpage-tall.preview.png
:align: center
:alt: ..
:scale: 33%
:figwidth: 45%
The *tall* example input page (5.0 cm x 27.9 cm)
.. figure:: _images/testpage-wide.preview.png
:align: center
:alt: ..
:scale: 33%
:figwidth: 45%
The *wide* example input page (27.9 cm x 5.0 cm).
These are intentionally uncommon formats so the effects of running
|pdfposter| will be more demonstrative.
Working With Portrait Images
-------------------------------------
Portrait images are higher than wide.
.. image:: _images/poster-tall-2x1a4.png
:scale: 50%
:align: right
:alt: Tall test-page as poster: Two portrait pages wide and one portrait page high.
Example 1::
pdfposter -p 2x1a4 testpage-tall.pdf out.pdf
This are two a4 pages put together at the *long* side: Two portrait
pages wide and one portrait page high.
.. image:: _images/poster-tall-1x2a4.png
:scale: 50%
:align: right
:alt: Tall test-page as poster: One portrait page wide and two portrait pages high.
Example 2::
pdfposter -p 1x2a4 testpage-tall.pdf out.pdf
This are two a4 pages put together at the *small* side: One portrait
page wide and two portrait pages high.
Working With Landscape Images
------------------------------------
Landscape images are wider than height.
.. image:: _images/poster-wide-2x1a4.png
:scale: 50%
:align: right
:alt: Wide test-page as poster: Two portrait pages wide and one portrait page high.
Example 1::
pdfposter -p 2x1a4 testpage-wide.pdf out.pdf
This are two a4 pages put together at the long side: Two portrait pages wide and one portrait page high.
.. image:: _images/poster-wide-1x2a4.png
:scale: 50%
:align: right
:alt: Wide test-page as poster: One portrait page wide and two portrait pages high.
Example 2::
pdfposter -p 1x2a4 testpage-wide.pdf out.pdf
This are two a4 pages put together at the small side: One portrait page wide and two portrait pages high.
