Printing Panoramic Format Pictures: If you took panoramic pictures on the entire roll of film, ask the processing-lab clerk to print the film only in the panoramic format. If there are panoramic and normal format pictures on the film, ask the clerk to print the film in both the normal and panoramic formats. (Normal format prints are 3 1/2 x 5 in. [88.9 x 127 mm] or 4 x 6 in. [102 x 152 mm], whereas panoramic format prints are 3 1/2 x 10 in. [88.9 x 254 mm].) You may want to consult the processing lab for development time and cost, and don�t forget to check the optional panoramic box on the photofinishing envelope.
