The key to this is memory. If you have 1.5GB - 2GB of RAM you can save the image as a jpeg at about 70-80" X 70-80". This will make a large file with lots of resolution that you can then scale down in a photo editor like Photoshop. Keep in mind you'll have to label with text labels (the ones that are as if written on the surface of the earth and change size as you zoom in or out) to keep your labels the appropriate size.
Another way you can do this is with Adobe Distiller 5.0 where you create a .pdf image of the layout (again resolution seems to be a function of memory) and then rasterize the .pdf in Photoshop, flatten the image, and save as a .jpg. This may be the best way to go, especially if you have a lot of line art / labels and you don't want them to look pixilated on the final image. Is it me, or do the MapInfo programmers still have a lot of work to do when it comes to printing?

Does anyone have any suggestions?
