Finally,
So keep asking and give plenty of detail.

see if I can pound Qimage into submission.
Like all software , you need to follow the rules and understand how to use its features and tools. That's why the forum is here to advise and sometimes ask "what are you trying to do - what is the final objective.So keep asking and give plenty of detail.

Final objective: one single image split across 3 separate panels, as per attached example.
That attachment was made just now using, "Print to File", 3x1 poster settings; the "printer driver" was "Print to File" size set to 5W x 7L. I combined them into a single image using Paint.NET. I don't know how else to do that. Each of the three individual files produced by Qimage from a 14.68MB JPEG were about 3.9MB ea.
Thanks, Terry, for sticking with me on this. I appreciate the help. And I realize that I should have included an example with my original post, it would have made my query much clearer from the get-go.
I think I have to take issue with your comment about poster print mode only being for "real" printing. It's kinda-sorta working for me printing to file, eventually to paper. But maybe I'm misinterpreting your comment.
I'm more than pleased with the results, not unhappy with the process, although getting to the final result was a struggle for me.
I have to run, will be away for a few hours. When I get back, I'll post some screen caps showing how sometimes I have to go from 5x2 to 3x1 in the poster settings (may have to split the post if I can't get the attachments down to size -- is that 256kb per image, or for all 4 allowed images in total?).
Again, apologies for not including an example in the beginning.
