1) Dimensions: the paper is on a 36" wide roll so one of your poster's dimensions can be no larger than 36".听 The other dimension is typically limited by your software. 听Better to decide on your poster's dimensions FIRST and then create it. 听

2) Posters prepared using a PC tend to be less problematic than those prepared on a Mac.听 If your poster is prepared on a Mac, then provide a PDF file for printing.听

3) Although PowerPoint is by far the most popular software to use for preparing posters, consider using MS Publisher if you have it. The printer's computer does not have Adobe Photo Shop so if that is what you want to use, send a pdf or even a jpg version to print from.

4) Suggested font sizes: no smaller than 30 or 32, depending on how much text you have.听 A good test is to prepare your poster (or at least part of it), zoom your screen to 100% then step back about 4 feet (1.5 m).听 If you can read the text easily then the font size should be OK.

5) Don't use weird fonts...the printer's computer may not have them and if you don't embed them into the file, they will be changed to a default font.

6) Try to include photos and graphs and听avoid having听too much text.

7) GIVE A WEEK to print it, especially if it's coming from a Mac: problems are common.

8) The ink is water-soluble: Don't get your poster wet!!

Further information appears in the Guidelines for Graduate Studies in the Department of Natural Resource Sciences, 成人VR视频, Macdonald Campus.

There are telephones in each research lab which you may use for local calls.

To reach phone numbers:

Within 成人VR视频 dial only the last four digits.

Fax Machine

There is a fax machine in the Welcome Centre (MS2-022A); the fax number is 514-398-7990. Unfortunately, we cannot send personal faxes. There is a service in Centennial Center for long distance faxes in Canada and the U.S. and in the Student Affairs Office (Laird Hall) for international faxes.
