Re: creating oversized PDF

[Dan Emory <danemory@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You need to print it from Frame to postscript using the Acrobat Distiller
3.x printer driver. In the distiller printer driver setup, specify a custom
size of 17 x 17. In my version of distiller, you don't have to set the size
in the distiller set-up to match the size you set up in the distiller
printer driver.
