Poster Guidelines

Posters will be on display in Halls 1 and 2 with three dedicated poster sessions as scheduled in the programme (A, B and C).

• Poster session B – Tuesday 30 July – 17:20 – 19:00
• Poster session C – Thursday 01 August 17:20 – 19:00

Boards are 2340mm tall by 946mm wide. Posters should be prepared no larger than A0 in size (84.1 x 118.9 cm / 33.1 x 46.8 inches), in a portrait format. If your poster does not fit within these dimensions, we cannot guarantee it will be displayed.

Fixing material will be supplied which is adequate for laminated posters. Fabric posters may be harder to mount.

Poster prizes will be awarded to the best student posters. 

Poster printing service

We are pleased to offer presenters a poster printing service with delivery to the conference. This service will ensure your poster arrives at the conference on time and for those travelling by air, saves you having to carry your poster through airport security. 

Posters are printed in full colour and will be available to collect from the registration desk on the first day of the conference. Posters will be printed as A0 in a portrait format on 200 gsm photo satin stock.  The cost per poster is £40.

Please read the following before supplying your poster. Unfortunately, it will not be possible to make any amendments once your order has been accepted.

• Please make sure your document has been proofed before supplying the files – this means you have checked the document for spelling and grammatical errors, colour issues, layout and design.
• Artwork should be supplied as a high resolution (300 dpi) PDF’s and must be A0 in size.
• All fonts should be embedded (select embed fonts in distiller options) or converted to curves.
• Colour palette – supply as a CMYK PDF, not RGB. It is important to ensure that all images used are also converted to CMYK.

Poster files need to be supplied by 17 July 2019. Files received after this time will be subject to a 50% surcharge.
