Guidelines for Preparations and Presentations of Posters
PREPARATION OF A POSTER
The poster should be a visual presentation of your completed work that was proposed in your synopsis. Posters should be brought to the Conference in hard copy and also uploaded to INDICO electronically. It is not necessary to complete a full paper if you are preparing a poster.
Posters should meet the following criteria:
Poster Size
All posters should be in portrait format and size: A0 (1189 mm high and 841 mm wide).
Format
The poster should be easily readable at a distance of two metres. Use UPPER and lower case for general content, as all-capital text is difficult to read. Avoid using mixtures of type/font styles.
Please be aware that all display material should be prepared in advance. It is not possible to print posters at the conference site. Pins for mounting posters are available on-site.
A template with a recommend format for posters can be downloaded using this LINK.
*In the "Poster Ref. no." slot, the file ID should be inserted. Please refer to the [Naming Convention] guidelines on the left menu for more information on your file ID.
