Perhaps you could shrink your signs down a bit 11"x17" is not a lot

We already sourced a few dozen 12x18 steel blanks from someone who worked
in a welding yard, so they're already painted and drilled and waiting for
the spray painting.
The plan at the moment is the following, since vinyl letters are
prohibitive in terms of cost.
1) Create the document and save to an image format (where I don't see how a
vector graphic program like Inkscape has any value over a non-vector
program like Powerpoint given that neither does tiling so tiling has to be
done elsewhere).
2) Use Susan's suggested posterazor to tile aimed at 12"x18" with overlaps
and unprintable borders, and then print that PDF to plastic transparencies
and tape it all together and cut the letters and borders out with an X-acto
knife.
3. Spray paint the signs red on white, and cover with some kind of clear
varnish.
This wasn't the original plan, but it seems the best given that vinyl
letters would be fine if they weren't fifty cents a letter and even vinyl
letters still need an accurate floorplan and sizes determined accurately.
