Multi-screen Presentation Issue

I truly am sorry if this is a 'no-brainer' question, but I need an answer to this quickly. If I am using the Matrox TripleHead2Go and the Advanced Module with Propresenter 3, can I customize the size of each individual screen or does PP and Matrox only display the image in three equal sizes? The reason I am asking is because my church plans to use the three screen set-up with the middle screen being a large theatre screen. (We meet in a movie theatre). The two side screens will be 4' x 8' of acrylic lighting panels (It's cheap and customizeable) Am I going to run into format problems that I haven't thought of? Thanks for all the help. My church is in a shortage crisis of tech guys obviously

For the Matrox all 3 displays must be the same resolution, but they do not have to be the same size.

The triplehead2go pretty much treats all three of your screens as one, but if you compose your video with that in mind and "mentally split" the video as you create it, you can get VERY inventive with how you lay out your video to target each of your REAL screens.

Here are two great examples.

Yes, those are great examples. I see what you mean by being intentional with the creation of the videos by keeping the layout of your screens in mind. Yet, I am a little limited right now because we only have one computer with Propresenter. We will be running all three of our screens from the one computer. We will just get creative with what backgrounds we use and whether we will stretch or tile at the moment. I hope to keep challenging the team to get more creative. Both replies were really helpful. Thanks a lot!
