-The CI workflow builds this variant automatically as `target/skeleton_fabric.pdf`.
+For mounting, `pdfjam` can place that A0 fabric version on a page which is 2 cm
+wider and taller, leaving a 1 cm margin on every side:
+
+```bash
+pdfjam poster_fabric.pdf \
+ --papersize '{861mm,1209mm}' \
+ --noautoscale true \
+ --outfile poster_fabric-1cmborder.pdf
+```
+
+The CI workflow builds both variants automatically as
+`target/skeleton_fabric.pdf` and `target/skeleton_fabric-1cmborder.pdf`.
