They don't print on the full page because either your margins are set wrong, or your printer doesn't print on the full page in the first place.

I cut all the edges off of mine, mine's the second one posted. My printer doesn't do edge-to-edge printing.

Dubs are crap. I recently saw Bleach on YTV (Canadian channel) and holy crap, the voices were so generic and bad. They're the same voices from every english dubbed anime ever. I couldn't take it.

I don't mean to be an elitist or anything, but subs are far superior to the average dub. I think if they just spent some actual time doing it well and getting english voices to match, more people would like them. Princess Mononoke is well dubbed, as an example (or atleast I found it to be).

I've seen fandubs of Haruhi that are better than most of the "professional" dubs.

I'll continue to call her Eruruu just like I'll continue to call Cagalli, Kagari.

Cowboy Bebop had the best anime dubbing ever IMO.

dubs ARE crap. the only reason they exist is all is for sales, simply because fewer people would pay for a dvd in a foreign language if there was no dubbing option.

Personally, I'd say by watching something dubbed, you miss out on the original voice actor's expression and tone, which is how the director wanted you to hear it.

I have yet to see (hear) a dubbing I like.

No, I don't mean Eluluu, read my fucking posts.

I agree you do miss out on things. But you wouldn't if the english dubs did their proper job. I'd honestly still watch it in Japanese though as I prefer their voices, they always match their characters better.

This thread is full of elitist fags.

I would also like to know how these are printed. I don't know anything about printing a single image to multiple pages. I'd imagine that it would be a relativly simple process, after having been done once.

Any help would be appreciated. In regards to software reccomendations and instructions.
>> That anonymous guy who keeps asking for help
>>98150
As mentioned in the OP, use either Posteriza or Rasterbator. They will automagically break a picture up into however many pages are required based on your settings. Detailed instructions shouldn't really be needed, I found it pretty simple with those applications.

From my experience, it takes a good bit of tweaking to get good Rasterbations, both before you rasterbate the image and the rasterbation itself. If you play around with the contrast and/or saturation levels before you rasterbate, and use small dots, you should get pretty good results.

Also, the download version of Rasterbator is much more flexible than the online version, so you might want to give that a try.

The download version of Rasterbator might allow you to use the whole page, but as 98068 said, your actual printer might not be able to print on the whole page.

The easiest way to print large rasterbations is on a wide-format printer. I've done a few on the one at my college, and they've turned out well.

is that poster printed using Rasterbator? if it is, what are the settings for it? whenever i look at the pdf files created by Rasterbator, the image is unclear because the sizes of the dots are too big. This happens even when it was set to 3mm.

Try 1 mm.

No I printed it using Posteriza @ some crazy high DPI on my printer
>> IDIOT

Get Picasa2 from Google, it can make the print as big as you want and you can play with all the settings to boot, and its free!

Those are all printed on normal legal paper (that's what was in the printer) @ 600 dpi Photo-RET or whatever the frack HP calls it. They turned out well for being completely half assed.

I gotta respond to the sub-dub debate here.

I'm neutral, I'll take either. But what I want to know is do you people who like subs think you know enough of the japanese language to know if the voice actor is doing a good job.
Because english has different speech patterns, intonation, syntax from Japanese.

I can honestly say I don't know any japanese. Yeah a few words but I don't count that. I don't know enough of it to do anything with. But that doesn't change my preference. I prefer the sound of the japanese VAs because it seems to fit the characters much better than english VAs, generally. The biggest annoyance for me about english dubs is they use the same people over and over again for everything (that or they all sound the same). And they don't seem to even try and make different voices. It all just sounds the same, and badly done.

This isn't to say there aren't really well done dubs, just that there aren't many. Sailor Moon has awesome dubbing in comparison to most of what comes out now. Bleach would be my most recent venture into english dubbed anime (half an episode), and I was NOT impressed.

One thing I wonder though, do I dislike english dubs because I can concentrate less. Allowing me time to actually notice that the voice acting is bad. Where as with a sub I'm having to read and watch a scene at the same time, and the japanese voice acting becomes almost a background thing used only to tell the emotion of the words, and nothing else.

Or maybe I'm just a weaboo, who knows. It's just my preference anyway.

What type of printer and paper quality do you use? Is it a plot printer or do you like load your file onto a cd and take it to a copy shop and have them plot it?
Or do you play connect the papers togather way with the printer printing all space over multiple pages?

I ask this, because I am currently working in Illustrator making a large poster (somewhere around 27x40 inches) of the Japanese End of Evangelion poster (see attached). This is the largest file I have of it, so it is slow going playing with vectoring in freetime.

Ok, the board is being stupid, it says the file is "Too large or not selected" .... here's a imageshack url:

I play connect the paper. As mentioned I think previously I just used legal size paper. If you look somewhat closely at the pictures you'll notice the seams (the camera really brings them out with the flash). I belive you can see the seams in all of them.

I'll go with either, depends entirely on the series being done; Cowboy Bebop had a great dub, Rurouni Kenshin: Trust and Betrayal sucked ass. I don't know enough Japanese to know if the original was better, I just thought the VAs sounded very wooden somehow.

LOL try dubbed anime porn. Now THAT sucks big time for voice acting.

As for Posteriza, I had to increase the margins from 10mm to 20mm to get the pages to line up. Otherwise the bottom of each page was cut off. I wasted nine good pages making that mistake. But now I know. I have an Epson R260 Photo Printer to do my printing with.
