possible. I found an OS 9 DesignJet driver and installed it in OS 9.04 running
under SheepShaver. I used the Adobe PS driver to create a virtual printer that
used the DesignJet printer description file and saved the output to a PS file on
the desktop. WordPerfect crashed a few times when I tried to select this printer
driver and choose an "ISO A1" paper size, but it finally settled down, and
created a .PS output file in A1 format. I copied that file to the OS X desktop,
opened it in Preview, and saved it as an A1-sized PDF file.

I've now updated my BasiliskII-WPMac setup to include a "Plotter-sized" virtual
printer driver that can create PDF files in A1 or any other conceivable page
size. Details here:
