In the box click on Microsoft Office Document Image Writer. Look for properties and click on it. In the dialog box click on Advance tab now. Then in the outer format select the tiff, then monochrome fax option, supefine, 300 dpi and give ok. Again click on ok. Then you get any downloaded poster format, picture and insert it.
You can download any ready made poster from the net and insert it in your project work. I will suggest you to use a poster8 tool to create poster.
