Is there any way to print, with Word, so that I can get multiple
sheets wide that I can tape together?

Excel does tiled printing. If you can transfer it and get the paper
size stuff to work that might do it for you.


If I understand it correctly, you are trying to produce large letters
which are wall-to-wall on the paper, with little or no gap at the edges.
You then tape several sheets together to form a banner.

I do this by converting blocks of lettering (at a large font size) into
a series of images, and then pasting the images onto the sheets of paper
so that they reach (or overhang, if you wish) the edges. [If you cannot
print right to the edge of the page, you will need to trim the paper as
required.]

You can create each image by doing a screen grab, pasting into most
imaging programs, then saving each to a filename. Then open blank Word
document(s), and insert the images. You can then adjust the size and
position of the images as required (even over the edges of the page).
