Introduction The page size of this poster
template is A0 (84x119cm), and it is in
portrait (vertical) format. This corresponds to
the poster boards available at CIM04 and is the
recommended poster size. Your poster should
begin with a brief introduction (placed in the
top left corner of the poster) and end (in the
opposite corner) with a closing statement.
Please use the same headings that you used in
your revised abstract. This will help conference
participants, who will already be familiar with
this format, to understand your material more
quickly. Feel free to add additional
subheadings. In this document, headings are
40-point and subheadings are 32-point. Headings
are centered and subheadings are
left-justified. To replace this text by your
own, highlight it with the mouse and type in your
own text, or copy and paste your text from
another document.

• Illustrations and graphs
• Images such as photographs, graphs, diagrams,
  logos, etc, can easily be inserted into the
  poster if they are in a compatible format. We
  recommend JPEG or TIFF.
• Illustrations
• To insert scanned images into your poster, go
  through the menus as follows Insert / Picture /
  From File then find the file on your computer,
  select it, and press OK.
• Be aware that images require a relatively large
  amount of memory. The average color photo (13 x
  18cm at 180dpi) would be about 3Mb (1Mb for B/W
  greyscale).
• Images should of course be original and not
  copied from books, articles or the internet.
• Graphs
• Simple graphs can be created in MS Excel or
  PowerPoint. For more complex graphs you may need
  a more dedicated graphics program.
• Use only a program in which it is possible to
  save the graph as a JPEG or TIFF image. Insert
  the graph into the poster just as you would do
  any other illustration.
• Printing
• Once you have completed your poster, save it to
  diskette and take it to your university printer
  or to a printing shop, or send it to them by
  email.
• Some suggestions
• Ask first for an A3 size draft print for proof
  reading.
• Find out the cost of laminating your poster
  before ordering it, because it can be quite
  expensive.
• Dont make your first visit to the printer the
  day before your flight. Call them at least a
  month in advance and ask their advice on how to
  proceed.

Heading of illustration We suggest setting
captions in Times or Times New Roman or
equivalent, italic, between 18 and 24 points.
Left aligned if it refers to a figure on its
left. Caption starts right at the top edge of the
picture (graph or photo).

Aims This model poster is intended to give you
an idea of what your poster might look like, and
to get you started. Of course you will want to
change things around to suit your material. You
will almost certainly want to change the number
of sections and figures and to enlarge or reduce
the space devoted to each elements. This is
easy to do! Just grab one of the handles on the
edge of this section and move it around a bit.
You will soon get the hang of it! If you make a
mistake, use control-Z to go back to where you
were before the mistake.
Fonts and colors The main text of your poster
should be between 24 and 32 points. Appropriately
elegant and readable fonts include Arial,
Helvetica and Verdana. The color of the text,
title and poster background can easily be
changed. For example, select Format from the menu
along the top, then select Text, then Color.
Please change some of the formatting of this
model to your personal taste. Otherwise, you may
find that your poster looks very similar to
someone elses!

• Method
• Here are some tips for creating a successful
  poster.
• Simplify everything! Avoid data overkill.
• Leave breathing space around you text. Dont
  overcrowd things.
• Use easily readable font sizes and styles. Dont
  Capitalize Headings. Use bold and italic
  characters instead of underlining.
• Prefer illustrations over text wherever possible.
  Try using photographs or coloured graphs. Avoid
  long numerical tables.
• Spell-check your work and get someone else to
  proof-read it.

Conclusion (or Implications) We suggest beginning
this section with a simple, direct statement of
the message that you would like people to take
home with them. Be sure that it follows directly
from the materials and evidence you have
presented. Add some other important final points.
Thats it!
