~~You~~ ~~can create a~~ Layout ~~Image~~ ~~on a~~ ~~single~~ ~~large background~~ and ~~print~~ as a Tiled PDF on ~~multiple~~ sheets of smaller ~~paper~~.

Single sheet Layout Images can be saved and printed '''as Tiled PDF''' to paper sheets which are '''smaller than''' the Layout Image background size.

Single and multisheet Layout Images can be printed to paper sheets or roll papers which are '''equal to or larger than''' the Layout Image background size.

You can create a Layout Image on a single large background and print to large scale printer/plotters on roll paper.

* across multiple sheets of paper by two methods:

** The Layout ~~image~~ is created as multiple sheets of paper ~~using~~ ~~Layout~~ ~~options~~.

** The Layout Image is created across multiple sheets, because the paper size can contain the largest pattern piece but can't contain all pattern pieces.

** The Layout ~~image~~ is created an a single sheet ~~of paper which~~ is larger than your printer's paper. '''File/Layout/Print as Tiled PDF''' will print the Layout Image across multiple paper sheets.

** The Layout Image is created as a single sheet and is larger than your printer's paper. '''File/Layout/Print as Tiled PDF''' will print the Layout Image across multiple paper sheets.
