<p>Hi Klaus,</p>
<p>Adobe states for Acrobat X:</p>
<p>"For printers capable of producing very large print areas, Acrobat supports pages as large as 15,000,000 in. (38,100,000 cm) by 15,000,000 in. (38,100,000 cm)."</p>
<p>This does not say anything about the resolution, of course.</p>
<p>I tried with Indesign 5.5 - max. page height here is *only* 5586 mm, which was cropped to 5080 mm when producing a PDF. Acrobat displayed the file correctly incl. some high resolution images on it (> 200 dpi), so I guess for the size of your banner Acrobat X will work.</p>
<p>Obviously, all programs (FM, Indesign, ...) still have further individual limitations for single objects that can be placed on a page.</p>
<p>Quite interesting banner, by the way...</p>
<p>Kind regards - Tino H. Haida, Berlin</p>
