A Block Posters alternative with exact sizing
Not just posters — exact-size patterns and templates, from images or PDFs.
Block Posters is a well-known free tool that splits an image into a grid of printable pages for a wall poster. GrafixManager does the same tiling but adds exact real-world dimensions, PDF input, vector-crisp output, and craft-specific presets.
