or
9 3/8 x 23"

couldn't save it higher than 72dpi because of the 1024Kb limit here.

Is 72 dpi enough resolution to get printed in a high quality??

Not unless you compensate with the measurements.

For example a file that is 10 inches long at 150 DPI will print out 5 inches long if you set it to print at 300 dpi.  (300 / 150 = 2   therefore 10" / 2 = 5" )

Vice versa.

72 dpi is a little too low to be happy with.
