3. FORMAT FOR POSTERS It is often useful to have a summarized version of the poster to hand to interested people. Remember that viewers should be able to grasp the meaning of the poster without listening to an explanation or reading a report. To assist in this: Communicate the message simply. Do not clutter the poster with too much detail. Only use materials that can be mounted on the poster board. Use title lettering at least 2.5 cm high with text lettering at least 8 mm high and 0.7 mm thick. Test readability from 1 m or more away. Use pie charts, histograms, graphs, tables, clip art, drawings, symbols and photos to illustrate key points. Use color effectively in these and make them simple, rather than complex. Design the poster to be read from left to right and top to bottom. Where possible, use one-line statements or bullet phrases to highlight key points, rather than full sentences (this list is set off by bullet points). Use bold face type for headings and sub-headings. Choose a readable typeface and use laser printers if possible. Keep the materials simple and the text short. Proofread the poster carefully. Ask a person independent of the project to review the text for clarity, organization and brevity. Bring white correction tape or fluid and black felt tip pen to the meeting to correct errors or scratches.
4. POSTER CERTIFICATES Certificates of poster submission will be available following the congress and will be sent to you via email.
