Hi, guys...I have large diagrams in Visio that I'd like to print to PS so I
can distill to PDF as one page, so I can merge them into the PDF created by
FrameMaker.

I'd like to create a page size in the area of 18 wide by 24 high so the
image is in one piece.

Haven't done this myself, but maybe these snippets from Acro Help will shed some light. - Carol Gilbert

Tips on creating PostScript files

Because Print dialog boxes can vary from application to application, it is difficult to
provide specific instructions for creating a PostScript file from each application. For
specific instructions on creating a PostScript file from the application you are using, see
the application’s documentation.

Keep the following guidelines in mind when creating PostScript files:

• Color and custom page sizes are available if you use one of the Acrobat Distiller 4.0 (or
later) PPDs. Choosing a PPD from some other printer may result in PDF files that do not
contain appropriate color, font, or page size information. In other words, if your source
document is intended for PDF rather than directly for print, use the AdobePS printer
driver and the Acrobat Distiller PPD to create your PostScript files.
• To create PDF files with custom page sizes, select a printer that supports custom sizes.
The Acrobat Distiller PPDs support custom page sizes.
