Get you a PDF printer like PDF995 (it’s free). All you need to do is select PDF995 as your plotter and it has all sheet sizes already configured. When you "plot" to PDF995 it creates a PDF file which retains vectors. This way you can open the PDF in Photoshop and rasterize to desired size/dpi. Do it all the time with site plans so I can do all my rendering work on Photoshop. Hope this helps!

another way if you don’t care about the vectored lines etc. is SNAGIT. With Snagit you can create a bitmap of anything on the screen. Then you can any of Adobe’s tools to do with the bitmap that you want. Snag is a Techsmith product and not very expensive.
