The wife has designed a poster for her uni course and needs to get it printed. She probably wants A3, maybe A2, in colour, and only 2 or 3 copies. At the moment it's on an A4 doc in Publisher using a clip art photo for the whole background.

What's the best way to get it done? I have no dealings with print at all.

Thanks

Phone up your local printers and ask them. We once got one of Mr A's photos printed at Prontaprint in A3. They offered 2 A3s for £5. Considering the photo was A4 the quality was pretty good.
