(Assuming you are running windows) If you found at times your machine was slow and you were curious enough to peek in Task Manager, sometimes you might have seen a whole bunch of svchost.exe processes hogging the memory. The worst part is you cannot kill those processes...well in case you were wondering wtf these were, here's a nice explanation:

Hi there very informative indeed.
can u sugegst something to handle my problem??


I want to print a big size pdf map with A4 size laser printer. after printing i will glue these papers to make a one single map of large size.

but with adobe pdf reader, I am unable to such kind of printing. So can anyone suggest that how can I do it.

To make the things more clear, the actual size map will fit on SIX pages of A4 size (3X2 -- 3 columns and 2 rows of A4 pages). and I want that with one print procedure I should be able to print all these six pages in one go, so that they are on same scale and there is no overlapping.

If I need any other software for this, kindly suggest me some free download for that.

Thanks.

I dont know of any automatic way, but there is a manual way.

1. Depending upon the size of the original, either zoom to 100% or to the size that will fit the map in 6 letter sizes.

2. Place the topleft corner of the image on your screen.

3. Open the printer setting menu under file.

4. Select 'no scale' or 'current view'

5. Under printing preferences, click on borderless printing.

Click print.

Follow the same steps for each section of the map seperately.

With a little trial and error you should be able to arrive at the best possible settings.

Good luck.

Hiren
