Default How do I create large page size documents that print on standard .

I would like to create a large drawing ( 11" by 17") for an architectural
plan to submit to my local county office. I would like to have the document
be able to print out to a letter size laser jet printer using standard letter
size paper but that the document would be "partitioned" by MS Word or some
other part of MS Office and then I could put the parts of the drawing
together like a puzzle. Is this possible?

The term you're looking for is "tiled." Word can't do this, but Publisher
can, and some printer drivers offer options for "poster printing" that can
do what you want.
