 Most presentation programs are probably able to print on large paper.
 I have used Powerpoint (part of Microsoft Office) to create an A0 (
 841 x 1189 mm - 1 square meter) poster. The Page Setup menu allows you
 to choose arbitrary page sizes. StarOffice (freely available for Windows
 and Linux - see www.sun.com) can also do the job.
 All you need then is a printer that can print large pages...
 Hope that helps,
 Tanja
