== Printing large graphs ==
If you want to print large graphs (especially with photos and other details) in reasonable readable quality, you should follow these steps:
* In Document Options choose SVG as output format.
* Setup paper format to fit graph into one sheet (SVG cannot handle more than one sheet), so choose A0 or custom size.
* Use [http://www.inkscape.org/ Inkscape] for opening SVG graph.
* Menu File/Document properties, use "Fit page to selection" function (fix size accordingly to graph size).
* Menu File/Save as, choose PDF format.
* Inkscape cannot tile PDF for printing large graphs on many A4/A3 sheets, so you must use another software to do it for you. For Windows, you can use [http://www.noliturbare.com/pdf-tools/pdf-tiler Govert's PDF Tiler] (can maybe run on Linux too using [http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page Mono], needs .NET 1.1) or [http://posterazor.sourceforge.net/ PosteRazor] which is available also for Linux and Mac.
