Printing Recommendations

Save your presentation as a PDF before sending it to a printer.
Print in color. Using a simple but visually appealing color scheme will attract people to your poster.
Do not print on glossy paper. Glossy paper reflects light, making parts of your poster unreadable.
Roll the poster inward so that the content side of the poster will not be damaged during transportation and storage.
Keep your poster in a safe place so it can remain professional looking until the event.
