Poster Presentation Guidelines

Poster presentations are for posters selected through the abstract submission process. Posters will be presented digitally through ICALCom website and displayed in the venue’s hallway throughout the conference.

Specifications for Poster Presentation

  1. Presenters who opt to present a poster need to create a poster file and present digitally but are not required to print it. Posters will be printed by the conference organizer in a 60cmX160cm X-banner in a vertical layout. Prepare your digital poster in such a way that it will fit the above mentioned size, consider using this template.

Tips for Poster Preparation

  • Posters should stimulate discussion, not give a long presentation. Therefore, keep text to a minimum, emphasize graphics, and make sure every item included in your poster is necessary.
    • Goal: 20% text, 40% graphics, 40% space.
    • Make sure ideas flow logically from one section to the next.
    • Use charts and graphs to illustrate data (avoid large tables of raw data).
    • Use high resolution photographs (web images often will not work).
    • Do not use all capital letters.
  • Be consistent.
    • Keep consistent margins.
    • Keep line spacing consistent.
    • Keep the color, style, and thickness of borders the same.
    • Keep shading consistent.
    • Pick no more than 2–3 fonts.
    • Pick no more than 2–3 colors.
  • Test readability
    • The text and the illustrations should be readable from a distance of 2 meters
