tile-photos helps you if you need to tile a source image to a given paper (image) size. It's very configurable. It's perfect for creating passport photos, business cards, etc.

Features

Tiles an image to a given paper (image) size. It possible to set:

• Paper size (the most used are already preset or you can set a custom size).
• Number for columns and rows of images.
• Space between images.
• Size of (all four) borders.

It's not required to set all the parameters. If you use the special value -1 then the real value will be computed.

• If you set only paper size then the maximal possible number of columns and rows will be computed. And vice versa.
• If you don't set spaces between images and border sizes there will be set to the same size (both in horizontal an vertical direction). If you set any of this value, only the rest will be adjusted.
• It's natural — just check it out!
