Subject: Indesign CS 2 printing to PDF
Question
I have a 17x11 Indesign CS2 doc that will fold to 8 1/2 x 11. I want to print to PDF on 2 pages so right-left sides both print at full 8 1/2x11 (client doesn't have printer for 17x11 paper). When I tile and print, Indesign forces me to reduce to 96% to avoid it going onto more than 2 pages. Indesign has option to print "upper left" at full size, but not "upper right." Is there a workaround?

You may run into issues when you are trying to print out your 11x17 layout on 2 letter pages. The problem is that your letter sized printer will not be able to print all the way to the edge, there for there will white gaps in the middle of your layout. Your best option would be to layout your piece as a 2 paged 8.5x11 and then your client could print it out easier.
If that is not an option, you can also try changing the tiling options in the print menu to manual and remove the overlap. This is theory would let your print your piece on two pages, but in reality I doubt this will work since the printer can not print all the way out to the edges.
