While you do not need the printer itself, you will need install the driver
for a printer that can handle that size paper and you will have to set that
printer as the activeprinter in Word. Note, I don't think that you can go
as big as A2.

Hi, I am trying to design a poster for a presentation later this week. The
poster needs to be done on either A2 or A3 paper. I want to design the
poster
on the computer and then have it professionally printed and laminated, but
I'm not sure how to change the paper size - I've tried doing it from
"File,
Page Set-up," but A2 and A3 are not given as options. It would be great if
someone could help me - also, if someone has any tips on whether or not I
should use a programme other than Word, that would be very handy too.

Thanks a lot.
