I created a word document that contains some drawings, text boxes etc. The
actual document according to scale/rulers along the sides is 19x19. When I
try and print this on a large printer that can print it al on one piece of
paaper , I only get about 1/4 of the document (probbaly the 8.5x11). If I do
a Print Preview or convert the document to .JPG or some other file, I stil
only get the small portion of the document. I have played with almost all
settings but no luck. Thanks in advance for your help !

2 Options to check.

1) Page setup settings in Word.
File / Page Setup/ Paper/ CUSTOM ( Should set this to the size of the
document to be printed. )

2) PRINTER PAPER settings may be defaulted to only Stnadard size papers?
Try FILE / Print/
Select the printer from your drop down menu if it is not the default.
THen select Properties/ preferences button to the left of it and verify that
the printer settings for this file are Custom paper sizes.
Good Luck

Take a look at the paper size selected in the print menus.

What printer are you using? It is all fair and well to tell Word to
create a document but when the document leaves word to another machine
it takes on a whole new perspective.
Make sure the page setup size is the same in both the wordprocessing
program and the printer and it should work for you
