Powerpoint slide larger than 56 inches in length

[Guest]

I am trying to make a powerpoint slide larger than 56 inches in length (I
have no other programs available) for a poster presentation -- I'm aiming for
36 inches by 66 inches, but the custom page setup will not let me go beyond
56 inches. Is there a way around this limitation on the program??

Yes, PowerPoint slides are limited to 56 inches width and heigth. Choose a
size proportional to the size you want and use the printer or copier to
enlarge it.

Best regards,

Thanks --- I have photoshop documents on the slide. How can I be sure that
they will not lose resolution??

They will remain at whatever resolution they were created at.

If that's sufficient for your intended output size, you should be OK.
