Although digital poster sessions are becoming popular, most of the time, your poster will have to be printed. It is very common to save the poster in .PDF format before taking it to print.

Prior to sending your poster for a final print: 

• Check spelling;

• Print the .PDF file on a regular piece of paper and check for balance of colors and white space, as well as for color and font hierarchy;

• Ask a friend to review your poster.

​

Note that although the .PDF format will do well for printing, it is best to save it in .EPS  format (short for Encapsulated PostScript) - a vector format designed for high resolution printing of illustrations. EPS files are created and edited in illustration programs such as Adobe Illustrator or CorelDRAW. If you do not have those programs, you may try to use this Online & free tool to convert PPS files to EPS. 

​

Poster can then be printed in FedEx office or using online services.
