I don't know if they still make them, Lesli, but there used to be a cheap little doohickey that allowed you to put a 16mm film print in it and shoot a 2 1/4 negative off of it. I used it years ago to create frame enlargements for my dissertation. Then, there's also a more sophisticated device that works like a light table and photo stand combined. The image is displayed on a translucent screen and you simply re-photograph it. 'Course, the master of frame enlargements is Kristin Thompson--though I think she usually works off of 35mm prints. You might try contacting her for advice.
