[Qgis-user] Splitting map in 'pages' of equal size for atlas

[Vincent Picavet]

Hello,
Sorry, hit the enter key too soon.
This is the grid for atlas plugin, used to build coverage layers :
http://hub.qgis.org/projects/synoptiquesatlas
It has apparently not been ported to 2.0. Maybe contacting the authors could 
help. Or propose a patch, or you can fund the port.
Not sure it deals with paper format though.
