[Athen] VERY Large print?

[Robert Beach]

I agree with Susan. That size would be very hard to manage.

How the heck would the student even manage that size paper, dragging it around to class, etc.?  I would offer re-sizable electronic text and talk to the person about potential technology that can be used to enlarge on the fly.

I just got a request for "large print" versions of textbooks on 22” X 34” paper. I have never heard of that. The most we can do in house is 11"x17". Is anyone making print that large? If so, how do you do it?  Is that a "reasonable" request?
