imagetyler 0.1.0

Tile an image across a PDF page for print-ready output.

ImageTyler

ImageTyler tiles a source image across a PDF page for print-ready output. Entirely vibe-coded, but reviewed and tested by humans. It supports mixed-unit dimensions, padding, and cutting guides.

Installation

Install as a standalone tool with uv:

uv tool install imagetyler

Add it as a dependency in your project:

uv add imagetyler

CLI Usage

Basic usage:

imagetyler photo.jpg --size 35x45mm --paper A4

ImageTyler accepts mixed-unit dimensions and inherits missing units from either side of the WxH expression. These all work:

imagetyler photo.jpg --size 35x45mm --paper 210x297mm
imagetyler photo.jpg --size 35mmx45 --paper Letter
imagetyler photo.jpg --padding 2mm --landscape --border

Useful flags include --padding for spacing between tiles, --landscape for rotating the target page, and --border with --border-width for cutting guides.

Use --list-units to inspect supported measurement units and --list-paper to list recognized paper aliases.

API Usage

from pathlib import Path

from imagetyler import generate_tiled_pdf

output = generate_tiled_pdf(
    image_path=Path("photo.jpg"),
    output_pdf=Path("tiled_output.pdf"),
    paper="A4",
    image_size="35x45mm",
    padding="2mm",
)

print(output)
