Draw attention
Keep your message short and clear. If you succeed in getting the reader's attention, then chances are that you will be able to provide her/him with more detailed information in the form of for example QR codes with more info.
Content checklist
Make sure that your poster clearly illustrates:
The body text of the poster should be readable from about 2 meters away. Use about 1 cm height for letters which is readable from a distance of about 2 m.
Use left aligned text in your paragraphs since it is easier to read. Use a maximum of 35-45 letters per line (including spaces) and no more than 6 lines per paragraph.
Illustrations and photographs
As a rule of thumb, illustrations should be easily legible from a distance of two meters. Figures created for articles are made to meet the requirements of scientific journals. If you intend to use these in your poster you will probably have to revise, and possibly edit, these figures to make them comprehensible in your poster.
Illustrations should be of sufficient size to be visible from a distance – 8 cm x 8 cm photos are probably the smallest to use, and 10 cm x 12 cm photos are a good size. Drawings are best if at least 20 cm x 24 cm. The advantage of using these sizes is that they are standard paper sizes and are compatible with many computer generated programs.
Using more than 3 or 4 figures may indicate that you are trying to say too much with one poster.
Do not import pictures from web sites since their low resolution only makes them suitable for on-screen presentations and web page use. If used for 35mm slides or posters they will appear fuzzy looking. Pictures for use on a poster should be scanned at 150 dpi at 100% of the size they will be used on the poster. If designing at 50% scale (ie: 18x30 for a 36x60 poster) then scan at 300 dpi. Save the image as a high quality JPEG file.
Tables
Try to avoid using tables on posters since they generally require too much attention and concentration from the reader.
Backup
Remember to allow time to make a backup copy of your poster.
