Page Setup for content:
Width - 38 inches
Height - 28 inches
(Page size for the poster itself 30 X 40
This requires a 1- inch margin as the buffer area)
Start the design:
Insert text ( it will size itself to the poster dimensions)
Insert logos ( You will have to determine how big you want
them
Insert Pictures/Tables/Figures ( size to your desires)
This is the time to play around with the format/setup/colors - brainstorm

Things to be aware of
Put
the poster on a screen, step back and
get a feel for the colors, fonts, and “white
space.” (Get comments from others!”
Try to get the poster done in advance.
That means???
Take to DECS with time to spare to let
the poster dry.
If laminating, I suggest letting it sit
overnight.
Be Aware continued
Poster boards should be 30 X 40, so
poster with or without lamination should
not be larger than 30 X 40
Use spray glue to attach poster to board.
Teamwork is important here, so enlist
others to help center and attach poster to
board.
