We usually try not to cut parts for people, just for the fact that if we did, we would then be in competition with our customers. But yes we can cut from a .dxf file, picture, pdf, etc.

Yes. A tank manufacturer that does some custom roll bending for me once in a while once had a sheet of 1.25" plate that measured something like 12'x80'.

USX Gary Works used to have the largest plate mill in the world....210" wide plate. That was some years ago when I contracted out there. May be bigger now.
arcelor mittal owns that 210" plate mill now.. i've worked on both the reheat furnaces and the tempering and heat treat lines as well.. i believe the way it went is that US traded mittal the 210" plate mill for the old LTV east chicago tube and tin mill on the south side of dickey rd.
