Printing tabloid size?

Hi --
	Ignore the affiliation -- this is on a NeXT running 3.0 OS / 3.0 Frame.
How can I get output, either in Postscript or tiled on the printer -- on an
11 x 17 document?

	Similarly, are there any service bureaus which will Lino NeXT Frame
documents for me, or do I need to put them in Interchange format? (The problem
is that the file is big enough as to not fit on a disk without compression and
such.)

	When I try to print my 11 x 17 document, no matter which printer I select,
it says it'll only print a portion of the image of each page because the paper's
too small. Even if I try to save the Postscript, it only saves the center 8.5 x 11
inches of the page image! Yike! I have this beautiful document, but no
way to output save to group the whole thing and shrink it by hand and then
blow it up again... sigh.

Any hints appreciated --
Thanks!
