  4. Saving Your Poster • Posters due from mentor to program coordinator: • Tuesday, July 15th at noon www.nasa.gov

  5. Template Options There are several templates from which to chose. You may also create your own. However, try to make your new template conform to the same standards as the ones shown here. The placeholder picture on the clear template should be replaced with your own graphics and text. Your Project Manager will provide you with a copy of the available templates. Templates are also available at: http://new2nasa.wikispaces.com/Abstract+and+Poster+Information

  6. Template Sizing 32” (Narrow Dimension of Sheet) • All available templates have a file size of: 32” x 42” • 18 point font minimum • Working area: • Allowing for a 1” bleed strip that will be trimmed off on all four sides, the final size of your poster will be: 30” x 40” • Content area: • This is the 28” x 38” safe area to place your content; don’t put text or graphics too close to the edge. *poster can be horizontal or vertical! 42” (Wide Dimension of Sheet) www.nasa.gov

  7. Working Area 30” (Narrow Dimension) The working area is the entire file as defined by the crop marks. This is the size your poster will be - after trimming. Don’t go beyond the dashed red line or you’ll lose part of your text and/or graphics. You may intentionally want bleed. In that case, it is OK. Crop Marks Proper Bleed Part of the blue sky will be chopped off -- to the left of the red dashed line. This is OK; the photo will look fine. 40” (Wide Dimension) Improper Bleed The tail of the helicopter will be chopped off and will cause it to crash - not to mention what it will do to your poster. www.nasa.gov

  8. Content Area • The content area is where you place all of your text, photos, graphics, logos, etc. • It is important to stay inside the content area or you may have your data cut off. Ouch! • The font should be easy to read and not too small. (18 point or larger) • Remember that low resolution images print as low resolution, so try to use the best ones you have. Printed size at 72 dpi should be fine. 28” (Narrow Dimension) Bad Positioning This pilot has his face crammed against the edge of the trimmed poster. He crossed the line and it shows. 38” (Wide Dimension) Good Positioning She didn’t cross the line. Notice the nice black edge to the right and below the photo. Unless you purposely want to bleed your photo off the edge, this is much better. www.nasa.gov

  9. The Abstract • The abstract is a brief summary of what topic you were investigating, what you did, what you found out, why it’s important, etc. (A SparkNotes version of your project) • An abstract book will be published featuring the abstracts of this summer’s interns • To create your abstract for the book, use template provided (available on the new2nasa page) • Save the file as a recognized naming convention • Use your last name and first initial plus a version (For example: “SmithM_abstract-v001”) Abstract to be submitted via email by your mentor www.nasa.gov
