Creating Largeoster

[Programming made difficult]

Using Windows P Pro and Publisher 2003. I have a GIF graphic that I need to
expand into a 36" by 48 " poster. My printer will print in formats of up to
11 by 17 inch. Publisher has a mechanism to overlap pages and print to
multiple pages that can be taped together into one large page. IF you know
how to use it!

How do I get from a 8.5" by 11" graphic GIF file to a 36" by 48" poster?

I'd like to print on 11 by 17 format to make the taping easier. How do I
set up the printer to output 11 by 17 and the multiple pages to overlap
sufficiently to be useful? When I try the 11 bu 17 output is in the wrong
configuation and ddoes not contain the entire page needed to make the
poster5. My printer is a Konica Minolta C350.

Setup your printer first for tabloid, in page setup, select banner, input 3 foot
width, 4 foot height. Of course you will have to resize your .gif. The resolution
will deteriorate.

Ha! almost looks like me too.
This has been fun...I've done 3 more labels since this morning



| Large Poster... Great whine picture, but will it sell wine? Do you use the
old feet
| in the tub method? Are your feet purple? See attached...
