You could also print it to a "ghost" plotter and take it to the blueprint boys and have it printed on huge blueprint paper. Norma
I found that if I setup an HP Large format printer (HP 750 C Plus/PS) I can select large scale pages from that setup and then print to a postscript file. This can be printed by the boys in the blueprint shops on the large format HP printer. I've done this with my brother who is an engineer with the county in MN. They have access to the large format printer. I ran a trial of a 3ft x 4 ft to see how the transfer would work. Just fine!. You can go to the HP site and look for the HP 750 format printers. From there you can download the drivers. Just set the destination to FILE when you do the setup of the printer and when you print to that one, it will have a popup window that lets you designate name and location. The extension may be .prn, but if you change it to .ps, the printer programs for the big ones will recognize the format. (it really is a postscrpt file, but windows is too dumb to put the right extension on it. <G>).
