Beginners' Questions Cutting an Arc pattern for printing on several A4 sheets

    Hello,

    Cosplayer in the soul, I was looking for a software to create my patterns of weapons, armors etc..
    Although a beginner, I managed to create my weapon (a bow) which measures 1m20 on Inkscape
    My problem is the following:  

    I want to make a custom cut out of the bow in several A4 pages in order to print the bow and reproduce it in real life (The Print Display function in PDF, cuts out the image well in several A4 pages but the result is not well . )
    I tried to separate parts of the bow with Inkscape but it forces me to break knots everywhere ...
    Is it possible to transform all the paths into an image to make a cutout ? (My research on the web often refers me to cutouts of images or text . ) or is there another solution to my problem?

    I hope I haven't been too confusing in my explanations.

    Thank you in advance for your answers :D

    EDIT > MAKE A BITMAP COPY  will create a raster version of the selected vectors.

    But it's easier to be done with the original vector and Slice Path Effect: https://youtu.be/0ALR1ZhIxQc
