Bug Description

Gentlemen, QPDFVIEW developers:
Not long ago I am using this software which I find it fantastic as it will open the documents with an amazing speed.
The "problem" I find is that it does not have the option to posterize, previously I used adobe-reader which had this option which is very useful for printing plans, with which the large format (or resized) plan can be separated into several sheets for home printer, and in each corner of the paper a cross is marked to be able to make the overlap to glue them. I have been using the pdfposter utility, but it is not entirely efficient.
I thank you very much for your appreciated attention.

Hello Walter,

thank you for taking the time to report this. Considering the situation with an existing tool and the limited resources available to work on qpdfview (developers could have been singular), I think we should rather try to optimize pdfposter [1] if its speed is the main issue instead of trying to implement this in qpdfview. So I am sorry, but I think this is out of scope for this particular project.

Regards,
Adam
