Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Big picture on facing pages

[perpernorbi]

Hi all,

I would like to insert a big picture in my document. The picture is so big, that it needs two pages. I'd like to put it on facing pages, so after printing it would look like this:

How could i do it?
Thanks in advance and sry for my bad English.

You have to split the image file into two parts and make sure that the partial images are put on facing pages.


Best regards and welcome to the board

Thank you for your answer.
My problem is that both pages have margins that break the picture. There will be a great gap between them. I'm creating a booklet and the two half of the picture should meet at the gutter. So I have to change the size of the margin but only on two pages. How to do this?
Thanks

Getting the pictures closer to the inner margins is not as complicated as you might think. The epslatex document introduces the narrow environment which allows to locally extend the text width into the margins. The document classes from KOMA Script provide the similar addmargin environment.

The gmeometric package might also be used to change the margins only on given pages.

That is true (apparently); however, my encounters with that package have been rather disappointing. To change the page layout in the middle of a document I really prefer the chngpage package.
