Goal of This Poster Template The basic idea with
this poster template is to make it easier for TTU
faculty, staff, and students to create legible,
higher-quality posters, and to avoid the most
common mistakes faculty, staff, and students have
previously made. Several templates are available
using different page orientations, number of
columns, and other layout elements. Select the
template most suitable for your purpose, and let
us know if there are any problems with them.
Advanced Layout and Figures/Graphics
Instructions Theres too much content in the
normal advanced layout instructions to put on
this poster. Read the notes pane at the bottom of
the PowerPoint screen to see them.
- Finally Getting a Plot of the Poster
- Go to the Engineering Workstation Labs in Clement
Hall 405. Take your ID with you to sign in. If
youre an engineering graduate student, you can
use your normal CAE account to log into these
labs. If youre an engineering undergraduate, you
probably have an account, too. - Pull up your PowerPoint poster file, and select
the File / Print menu dont use the Print icon.
In the print dialog, select the printer named
hold (an HP DesignJet 800ps). Then click the
Properties button to the right, and the Advanced
button at the bottom of the properties dialog.
- Basic Instructions
- Do not modify font sizes or the positions of
standard poster elements (titles, authors,
acknowledgments, etc.) - Copy and paste this text box if you need a
bulleted list, or the previous text box if you
need paragraph text. - Do not mix bulleted text and paragraph text in a
single text box. PowerPoint doesnt handle mixed
text formats very well. - Dont go nuts with drop shadows, 3D effects, or
other poster noise. Focus on the clarity of your
message. - Dont use Insert / Object to include content.
This bloats up the poster file, and is likely to
not work on other systems. Use Insert / Picture /
From File to include outside graphics. - Copy and paste the equation below if you need a
readable equation, and keep in mind that your
audience might not be that interested in the
details of the equations rather than the basics
of the research.
- In the Advanced dialog, change the Paper Size to
Postscript Custom Page Size. Change the custom
page size dimensions to the size of your poster
(40x50 inches for this template). Click the OK
buttons to exit all the dialogs.
- After PowerPoint has finished printing your
poster, go to the Helpdesk in the front of
Clement Hall 405 and ask for your plot. Theyll
preview the poster before releasing it to the
plotter, so you can make sure its oriented
correctly on the page.
