What size do you need your poster to be and how big is your image?

When you say a PS document, what do you mean exactly? are we talking about an image, a pdf file or something scanned in? if it's an image is it from a digital camera or scanned film?
The reason I ask is an image from a good digital camera will blow up to that size without any real problems, but a printed leaflet scanned in will probably look terrible. The more info you can give us will help us give better advice. Wayne

Also, it depends how close you'll be getting to the poster. If you go into like Blockbuster or somewhere with big cardboard displays and you go up close the photo quality is actually very poor, but since people see them from distances they look fine. The same is true with billboards...
