I've compared several.
This one is the best I've tried and it's free... but I donated $ since it was for a commercial job.
3 x 4 feet.

It's a do-it-yourself program.
Order the finsihed print wherever you like.

Someone on the list suggested Block Posters.com (free). I found that I can only upload a small file and when I increased the size I could see the pixels when printed out. I also found that the border has to be cut off and a standered 8x10 print could not be made. I printed out only one block. There might be other free programs that works better but couldn't find one. I needed one a way so I could sell the end produce, so I bit the bullet and got Blow Up (200.00 bucks).
That lets me blow any file size (I shoot in raw and large Jpg). Then I cut it up in 8x10 blocks in gimp (free). Those files turn out to be at least a couple of megs in size. I don't do any finishing printing any more so I included the files with my order to Meridian Pro for 1.49 per print and 15.00 2 day air to get it done. I like no border put them in a plastic frame. The photo I uploaded was the center 3rd of a horizontal photo so I cut a lot off and didn't even print the bottom row of files (would fit where I wanted to put it, cost savings, and didn't need it same with upper right). The second I'm working and it will end up being a 40x 70. Sure I could get this done from companys that print poster size but they are very hard to work with and whey cost a lot more.
