I'd like to use LaTeX to produce a paper that needs to be zapped onto those
nice big pages that folks like to use for proceedings.  There is a proc.sty
file, but it just makes small pages.  I need big pages.  

Of course, I could just zap the parameter setting the height of the page, 
and the width of the page, but this doesnt solve the whole problem.  I then
need to get it onto paper - and all the local laser printers eat standard
8 1/2 X 11 pages.  Is there no way to tell LaTeX that I want the logical
page length to be something, but to actually output the pages at another 
length (then I could glue them together)?  

It'd be so much easier if they would just accept a floppy disk with my LaTeX
source on it.  Sigh.
