Print from the Bookmarks tab
You can print the pages associated with bookmarks directly from the Bookmarks tab. Bookmarks appear in a
hierarchy, with parent bookmarks and child (dependent) bookmarks. If you print a parent bookmark, all page
content associated with child-level bookmarks also print.
Not all bookmarks display page content, and therefore cannot be printed. For example, some bookmarks open a file
or play a sound. If you select a mix of printable and nonprintable bookmarks, the nonprintable bookmarks are
ignored.
Note: Bookmarks made from tagged content always display page content because the tagged content represents printable
elements in the document structure, such as headings and figures.
1
Open a PDF with bookmarks. If necessary, choose View > Navigation Panels > Bookmarks so the bookmarks
appear in the navigation pane.
2
Select one or more bookmarks, and then right-click/Control-click the selection.
3
Choose Print Page(s) from the menu.

Printing custom sizes
Print an oversized document
Although you can create a PDF file as large as 15,000,000 inches (38,100,000 cm) in either direction, most desktop
printers cannot print such large pages. To print an oversized document on your desktop printer, you can print each
page in pieces, called tiles, and then trim and assemble those pieces.
You can also increase the scale of a standard-sized document and print it on multiple pages.
1
Choose File > Print.
2
From the Page Scaling menu, choose Tile All Pages if all pages of the document are oversized. If some of the pages
are standard-sized, choose Tile Large Pages.
3
(Optional) Set any of these options, referring to the Preview image to check the output results:
Tile Scale
Adjusts the scaling. The scaling affects how the sections of the PDF page map to the physical sheet.
Overlap
Specifies the minimum amount of duplicated information you want printed on each tile for ease in
assembly. The Overlap option uses the unit of measure specified for the document. The value should be greater than
the minimum nonprinting margins for the printer. You can specify up to half the size of the shortest side of the
document page to overlap. For example, tiles for a page that measures 11-by-17 inches (279.4mm-by-431.8mm) can
overlap up to 5.5 inches (139.7mm).
