Tips for Creating Your File

Resolution
Images should be at least 150 DPI at their printed size, please allow for this when scaling images.
(For example if you creating a file at A4 size with images at 150 DPI and wanting to print at A1
size, the enlargement factor of 283% would mean that your printed DPI is approx. 53 DPI.) Most
images taken from the internet will be 72 DPI, which is too low for printing.

Fonts
Generally it is best to use only 2 – 3 fonts on a poster this will make your poster easier to read.
Headings are best in a font such as Arial and body text in a font like Times New Roman. It is
best to use an actual Bold or Italic font rather than simply selecting bold or italic in the menu
commands - these may not print as shown on the screen.

Font sizes will depend on how big you create your poster and how much data you have. As a
general rule if you were creating a poster in A0 size you might have a heading at 70pt and body
text might be at 24pt to 36pt depending on the amount of body text you have.

Colours

It will depend on the program you use as what range of colours you can select. Do not use Pantone Colours as these are spot colours which are not printable on many systems, in a worst case scenario Pantone colours will print as a blank white space. From a design perspective it is best to limit the number of colours on your poster to 3 to 4 colours (excluding those used in graphs)
