Poster Printing Guidelines

Poster Presenters are asked to prepare and print their poster(s) for display at the conference. It is important to set up your slide to a size that is proportional to the printed size of the poster. In PowerPoint, go to Page Setup and select Custom. Fill in the proper width and height.  

• The maximum poster size is: 1900mm (wide) x 1040mm (high) - landscape format. 
• One slide only, please! Create your poster from a single PowerPoint slide.  
• Fonts – Choose two fonts at most, nothing cursive. Stick to sans-serif fonts for legibility: Arial and Helvetica are recommended. If you wish to use a serif font, we recommend Times New Roman (Windows) or Times (Macintosh). 
• Excel Charts – You can paste Excel charts into PowerPoint: from Excel, select your chart and Copy, then in PowerPoint, Paste the chart where you want it to appear. For detailed instructions see Microsoft Office Support. 

• Word Text – Insert a text box into your PowerPoint slides, copy the text from your Word document and paste it into the textbox in your slide. 
• Image Files – To add image file, select “Insert”>”Picture”. Images should be good quality and appear clear and sharp on your screen. Since they will be enlarged for printing, we recommend that images are set to a resolution of 300 dpi. 
• Backgrounds – For legibility and viewing ease, we suggest that you keep your backgrounds simple and avoid using dark colors. 
• Poster Number – Please note that your poster number will be different than your ABSTRACT ID number. Your poster number will be communicated to you closer to the conference. This number will be displayed on your poster board, please affix your poster under your number displayed. 
• Double sided cohesive tapes will be provided in the Exhibit Hall to set-up posters. 

Poster Electronic File

IASLC would like all poster presenters to submit an electronic file of their poster to be included in the IASLC virtual library. The electronic file should be submitted in addition to having a printed poster presented at the Conference. Your poster electronic file should be PowerPoint (PPT) or Adobe (PDF) file format.  

• Prepare a one (1) slide, 16:9 PowerPoint presentation (PPT) for your E-Poster to be displayed during the conference.  
• Submit your presentation by July 27, 2022 (the submission link will be provided to the presenting author in July).

The Presenter may choose to present on all days but please note that it is mandatory for the Presenter to present their poster(s) on the assigned Poster Viewing Session. Any posters not removed by the end of Poster Takedown time will be discarded by management.

Check Schedule Conflict

If you have a scheduling conflict with another presentation, we strongly encourage you to ask one of your co-authors to stand by your poster during the Poster Viewing times noted below to informally answer questions from Conference delegates. Please carefully check the schedule of all your presentations and contact wclc2022-abstracts at icsevents.com if you wish to change the presenting author and/or abstract title.

Mandatory Poster Display and Session Attendance

E-Posters will be displayed on all days of the Conference at the exhibition hall and the Virtual Platform. There will be a number of screens accessible during the viewing session for delegates to be able to choose to view their poster of choice via a search/menu selector to bring up a poster on demand. You do not have to be present to present your E-Poster. All enquiries will be directed to you on the virtual platform via the networking chat function.
