  1. TITLE GOES HERE USING BOLD AND LARGE TYPE SO IT IS VISIBLE FROM SEVERAL FEET AWAY Names of Authors, Principle Investigators Go Here, in a Little Bit Smaller Type University & Other Affiliations Here ABSTRACT MATERIALS AND METHODS RESULTS The text for the Abstract goes here using a san-serif font like Arial or Helvetica. This type is easier to read at a distance and when there are several paragraphs of text. Also, use a large size for the text, such as 24 point (that’s what this is) and try not to go below 20 point. You can highlight this text and replace it with your own. Having this template should make it easier for you to create your own poster. The best contrast for poster text is black letters on white background. However, that can be changed for a more colorful poster such as this one. Also, if you are not happy with the colors in this template, they can be changed as well. Simply highlight this text and use Format/Text Box on the menu bar above. You can select whatever color combinations you like. This template is set up for a 48x36” (4x3’) horizontal poster. You can change the size by going to File/Page Setup in the menu bar above. Be careful, though, as the text and figures will shift if you make the change after you have completed your layout. If you know the dimensions, set those first. If you must change the dimensions after you have completed your layout, be sure to check your figures; re-insert them if they are distorted in any way. The text, generally, will not be affected by such a change. The text boxes will automatically fit the text you type or paste in from MS Word, and if you click on the text, you can re-size the text boxes using the “handles” that appear on the edges, to whatever size you want. The dotted lines through the center of the template will not print, they are to help you with alignment. You can move them around by clicking and holding them, and a little box will tell you where they are on the page. Use them to get your pictures or text boxes aligned together. You can also select the text boxes and the figures and use the Draw/Align or Distribute menu to align them. The Results section often has several figures included. Place them as needed and add a text box for the legends. Try to make some figures a little larger than others for added visual appeal, or emphasis.

Again, simply highlight the text in this text box and replace it with your own. Keep your paragraphs consistent through-out your poster layout. Insert charts and figures as needed.

CONCLUSIONS • Conclusions can be written in paragraphs or in list form using numbers or bullets. The bullets can be formatted using the Format/Bullets and Numbering command from the menu bar above. They can be formatted with a different color from the text or using the same color. Most formatting options are personal preference. • XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. • XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. TEXT AND FIGURES FROM EXCEL OR WORD EXCEL - select the chart, use Edit/Copy, and then Edit/Paste into PowerPoint. The chart can then be re-sized to fit as needed. If you need to edit parts of the chart, ungroup it. Watch out for scientific symbols. PowerPoint will not recognize them in imported text or figures so you may have to go back through your text and add symbols back in using the symbols font. WORD - select the text to be brought into PowerPoint, use Edit/Copy, then Edit/Paste the text into the text box. You can edit the text by changing the size, color, italics or bold, or add other effects using Format/Font in the menu bar above. PICTURES Use the Insert/Picture/From File command in the menu bar above to insert figures that are not PowerPoint based, such as JPG images of photographs. These should never be “pasted” into a PowerPoint file. SCANS Images that need to be scanned work best in PowerPoint at 72 to 100 dpi in their final size on your poster. TIF images that are not greater than 10mb can be used but PowerPoint is happiest with JPG files. It is NEVER good to enlarge a JPG file once it is in place, so be sure to size your figure in another program such as Photoshop, save a copy as JPG, then insert the JPG image into your poster. A good way to make sure your figures look okay on your poster is to view it at 100%. Scroll around to see if the images look good. If not, they won’t look good in final print. INSERT CHART OR FIGURE REFERENCES The standard procedures for Reference format should be followed here. However, the size of the text can be significantly smaller than the the rest of the poster sections if there is an issue with space. A section for Acknowledgements can be added in this area of the poster also. That usually comes ahead of the References section, if it will be added at all. That also can be significantly smaller than the text in the rest of the poster.
