[Boatanchors] WTB HP 606B Signal Generator Manual

[D C _Mac_ Macdonald]

Then what starts as an 8.5 x 11 will occupy about 11 x 14 
of an 11 x 17 page. 
 
When reproduced on an 11 x 14 page, you can fold at the 8.5 
point from the left side and you can put that folded page 
easily in a 3-ring binder. 
 
We had a printer that would do that at the FAA where I worked 
for 16 years until I retired in 2010 and I enlarged many 
compressed schematics with that method.

    The HP foldouts are generally 11 x 17

      Some
          copy/printing shops can take the small page and enlarge it to
          a usable size. 

         

        Enlarging an 8.5 by 11 by
          abut 28% can get you to an 11 by 14. 

         

        What size is an original
          foldout schematic? 

         

        Some copy shops might have
          machines to get you up to widths of 22" 

        or more.  That would get you
          a foldout of approximately 22 by 28.
