IDW Posters

    Hi Mark,
    We are putting two (2) posters on each side of a 4′ tall x 8′ wide board. Therefore, we have been recommending A0 size posters (841mm wide x 1189mm tall). This is the U.S. equivalent of 33.1″ wide x 46.8″ tall. Therefore, there’s (technically) room to go a bit wider, but not taller, if the poster presenter chooses.
    We haven’t had any interaction with the poster presenters, but I’m fairly sure that Mustapha and Simon have shared this information several times. I’m not sure, however, about RDA.
    Thank you,
    Matt

    Hi all,
    Karen raises an important point. I think we decided to go with portrait-style posters correct? We should send a targeted email to all poster presenters.
    cheers,

    Dear Mustapha,
    I’ve just had a poster presenter in this session ask about poster size. I can’t find this info anywhere on the SciDataCon website either. I see the poster template link below but nothing about the actual physical space they are allowed for their poster. Can you help?
    Thanks,

    but the point is… the poster formatting should be “Portrait” not “Landscape” if you want to use you real estate most efficiently. Bernard

    Technically, it’s square @ 48” x 48” maximum space per poster. ☺

    Just as a reference…
    On the RDA side, we have requested (both on the application/poster
    session page as well as in the communication going out to the
    applicants) that the posters would be designed in a vertical format with
    dimensions of 70cm per 100 cm. This is the minimum size we have advised
    on previous occasions while the maximum is the A0 size poster Matt
    mentioned below.
    Speaking from the experience of past Plenary poster sessions, there are
    always a couple of applicants that choose to ignore the instructions and
    prefer the landscape layout … usually a solution for them is found
    onsite 🙂
    Thanks,
    Timea
