    Allen, give it a go.

    I'm not entirely sure if your borders are included in your measurements, or in addition to your measurements.

    I am assuming here that the borders are included in the 16" x 20".

    I would create a document with two posters side by side, with the images rotated to landscape orientation. Make the document 40" Wide by 16" high.

    import your image. Resize it to be 14" wide, 17" high (I assume it's already in the right aspect ratio). Rotate the image by -90 degrees (anti-clockwise, top of image now facing left edge). Position it 1" from the left, 1" from the top. Copy the image and paste it and position the copy 1" from the top, 21" from the left edge.

    You should be good to go to print.

    With a document containing two posters, you just print it off five times. Use the first one as a test.

    I'm sure if you create the document and post it here, someone will check it.

    You may wish to make the document a bit bigger and include crop marks.

    If anyone spots a flaw in these instructions, SHOUT!

    Paul

    Here's how I'd go about it, as the others have stated. See attached xar file.

    You might like to add a small line width to the white rectangles as crop marks.
