I found this a while ago when I was looking for something to break up a map into one-page segments so I could have a giant map. Never did find an ideal solution.

Anyone know another tool like this that doesn't convert the image to half-tone? I want to use one of those blank world maps from Wikipedia to print out as a giant tiled map to assemble on the wall.

mpage on unix

I believe some of the more recent Photoshops have that functionality

Failing that: Illustrator can open pdf, and you can scale the output to the desired dimensions and carefully segment them yourself.
