SplitPrint
SplitPrint is a macOS utility for splitting large images and PDF documents across multiple pages for printing on a standard printer.
What is SplitPrint?
SplitPrint is a macOS printing utility that helps users turn large images and PDF documents into tiled, multi-page printouts. It is designed for people who need to make posters, conference materials, large plans, charts, drawings, or oversized reference sheets without using a large-format printer. The app lets you choose how a document is divided across pages, adjust the printed size, and prepare output for home, school, hobby, or office workflows. It also supports exporting split output to PDF or image files, which is useful when you want to print elsewhere or reuse the layout digitally. SplitPrint is published by Virkkuset and is focused on practical page tiling and print preparation on Mac.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
SplitPrint is a standard Mac utility for preparing large documents for printing, so access to files you choose to open is expected for its purpose. Users should pay normal attention to the documents they import, especially if those files contain sensitive business, school, or personal information. The app may store recent document choices or basic settings, which is typical for Mac software. If you no longer use it, removing the app may also remove its saved preferences and working data.
Recommendation: Keep SplitPrint if you use your Mac to print posters, plans, large charts, or tiled PDFs on a regular printer. If you do not use this workflow, you can remove it without affecting macOS, though you may lose its saved settings and any app-specific export convenience.
