uhu02, Apollo 13 LM -7 Aquarius?
lol
you have probably picked one of the worst models to resize in this manner!
Not only is it 21 pages...but the part count is quite high
and its crammed with parts of every shape and size.
There are many parts that will have to be split into smaller components and
then reassembled during the final model assembly...so, lots of seams.
There are many many very small parts that make it difficult just to divide up
the pages for tile enlargment and printing...you don't want to be chopping
up smaller parts in the process.
Even for me, and I know what I am doing with Corel (I think Uhu designs in Corel)
it would take a very long time and a lot of work to separate and reorganize that
model (for upscale printing).
You do NOT want to rasterize this file. It is pure vector art. Wonderfully executed and detailed vector art.
It will upscale perfectly. You want to work with this file as vector artwork and retain all of UHu's high
quality artwork. Do not convert to "image". No jpeg or Png!
And even if you get it all sorted ...enlarged, and reorganized...it will require printing
on more sheets (depending on the new sheet size) which will double, triple or even
quadruple the price! (One A4 page enlarged 200% will require four A4 pages to print)
I would say your most practical method is to find a print shop who can print on larger full sheets,
can supply you with the proper cardstock (f you don't already have it)
and can give you 21 sheets printed at a reasonable cost.
A2 printing might be your best option. Its close to 200% enlargement.
And it shouldn't be too difficult/expensive to get cardstock.
If you print without margins, I think a 220% enlargement will fit.
Anyone with a large format printer can print the pages for you, you just need to haggle a price.
($4-$5 per A2 sheet would be the most I would pay including the cardstock.)
