If you've got autocad you can insert it as a PDF and print a scaled version.

This.

Set up a viewport/window around the area you want and print to scale on a A3.

Would love to help mate but I'm off work until next Monday and haven't got access to autocad.

Sent you a u2u with my email, but can't do anything until I'm back in the office.

I used to do it by opening a new A3 drawing sheet, creating a viewport to fit, then xref the original drawing into the model space. Dunno if that'd help.
