Does anyone know how to divide an A2 Document in the middle to print as 2 A3?

I have an A2 Document of about 50 pages, Each page is set to a landscape spread of 420x594 (A2). I would like to print them to 100 pages of A3, with each page split down the middle so I can print them on my A3 printer. The purpose is to enable me to tile them on a display for a private presentation. I don't have an A2 plotter, besides my prints contain so much colour and taking them to a commercial printroom is out of the question. It will cost. Thanks in advance for the help.

    File>Print

    Go to Setup

    Then choose Tile

    Set your page up as A3

    It will give you trim marks to trim off and then it will fit nicely together.

    Can you be more specific Eugene? I have tried that already. Can't see how to divide them down the middle. Go into more details please.
