Working on a large banner, and want to share it with my team for review.
Original file is 15mg, too large to send, and making a .pdf results in 45
pages of tiled images. Other desktop publishing software allows you to
select a "fit to one page" or "scale" option so your image is reduced to one
legal or letter sized sheet of paper. I can't even print this out to walk
around and show my co-workers for comment.

So - making a .pdf doesn't work, selecting Reduce then Fit to Paper Size
won't work, asking to scale this to 20% won't work, printing to Office
Document Image Writer doesn't get me anywhere.

Help! Confounded in Cleveland

When you select PDF, properties, settings tab, create a new page size, type the
page size as the banner size. You should be able to see the entire banner in the
resulting PDF. It will be slow to create depending on the content, gradients
will be very slow.
