Three ways:

    - Turn the page to landscape.

    - Make everything on the layout smaller to fit the page width
      (or tell FileMaker the page is A3 sized and use the printer
      options to scale it down to fit you printer's page size) ... you
      can always enlarge it on a photocopier.

    - Design your layout to use a second page (vertically) so that
      once printed it can be sellotaped together just like the Excel
      printed pages.

Technically there is a fourth way: buy an A3 or bigger printer.
