Hello all...

Hmm...guess I didn't get more technical....I know about the blue
book poster (I have a copy of it sitting right next to me) But
I was looking for more of a....well....*larger* program.
More precisely, I need to be able to take a postscript file (like
a EPS'ed GIF) or a word or two, and be able to blow it up to
*any* point size (I'm talking tens of thousands here...).
Twenty feet by twenty feet? No problem....I've got the space.
What I don't have is the program. I have not been able to 
sucessfully re-calculate that blue book program to print much
much larger than I want it. That is where it kind of bogs down.
I've got all the power of a vax behind me (obviously) and a 
very very very fast Imagen printer, but it just doesn't like
those calculations....

Sigh

Thanks for the help I did receive....a lot.

Ron
