I am doing a ledger size poster in troff and need to have it
printed. Several questions.

First will Elan's eps filter handle this? I know the old
release of eps would not do legal correctly? Will the
newer version of eps handle it? If not, is it just a question of
tweaking a few parameters in the postscript file (like selecting
manual feed?) [Presently I am doing a paste up by generating
two 8.5x14 sheets on an HPlj and a the header on a PS printer.]

Secondly how can I, again assuming I'm using Elan's eps, scale
the 11x17 legder size to fit on a 8.5x11 for proofing the
document?

And thirdly does anyone know of a print shop in the Washington DC
area that can handle the generation of camera-ready copy from
a postscript file?

And lastly, are there any postscript printers that will
handle ledger size paper?
