Best Print FTPro

I have access to an architectural printer and got permission to print the Planet I created. So before I use a lot of ink and paper what would be the best way to print the map? By splitting up the map like a grip? 6 View orthographic? Or is there something better?

    Ah, the age-old question on how to best represent a spherical surface on a flat piece of paper.

    The short answer: There is no short answer. ;)

    It all depends on what you like to achieve. Do you want a view like from space? Then a series of orthographic views might be best. Do you want a class-rom style wall map? Then Mercator or one of the Wagner Projections might be nice. Are you looking for highest accurary for a certain aspect of the map (direction, area, distances)? Then you'll need to look into the properties of the different projections.
