Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to make an academic poster?

No. Think more of a photo-heavy double-page spread in a magazine with text to explain what’s going on.

What size should my poster be?

You can choose any dimensions for your poster and any software to create it. The important thing is that the information, text and photographs are clear for people to read and understand. If you use Microsoft PowerPoint, text size of between 12 and 16 will be clear when your JPEG is uploaded to Twitter. Check your poster on Twitter to make sure you are happy with your image.
