How to use this document to create your PRD poster This file contains an assortment of templates to use in making a research poster. Browse through the slides to find the template style you like best. Don’t be afraid to mix and match design elements from different templates. Find the combination that works best for your project, and feel free to change any color or font. Note that each template has a Princeton Research Day logo as well as a spot for a QR code and poster number. Please do not delete these items, though you may move them around the poster if it aids in your layout/design. The poster will be printed landscape at 34-inches by 46-inches. The slide is already formatted to the proper size. When inserting images, it is best to use a resolution of at least 300 dpi. After you decide on a template, DELETE THE ONES YOU’RE NOT USING (and these instructions). When you’re ready to send the poster off to be printed, save as PDF and make sure it contains ONLY the slide containing your poster.
