If you want to print a full-size score (11 by 17 inches, for example) and don’t have a printer capable of printing on 11 by 17 inch paper, you have a dilemma. You could print your score on letter or legal-size pages using your printer and then photocopy these pages—using an enlarging copying machine—onto 11-by-17-inch paper; the disadvantage is that enlarging your output in this way reduces the clarity of the original printout.
Or, you could use Finale’s tiling pages feature. Finale can automatically tile the pages—in other words, print out several standard-size pages with a portion of the full score page on each, so that you can then tape them together (and, if you wish, photocopy the result onto large single pages).
