General Information
A poster should be self-contained and self-explanatory, allowing different viewers to proceed on their own while the author is free to supplement or discuss particular points raised in enquiry. Presentations should be kept simple and clear with a mixture of text and graphics is recommended. Remember that the time spent at each poster is determined by the viewer, not the author as in the case of slide presentations. Materials may be mounted on coloured poster paper or board. Use matt finish rather than glossy paper. Arrange materials in columns rather than rows. It is easier for viewers to scan a poster by moving along it rather than by zig-zagging back and forth in front of it. An introduction should be placed at the upper left hand and a conclusion at the lower right.

Illustrations
Figures should be designed to be viewed from a distance and should use clear, visible graphics and large type. Each figure or table should have a heading of one or two lines. Additional essential information should be provided below in a legend. Photographs should have good contrast, sharp focus and, if necessary, an indication of scale.

Text
Minimize narrative. Use large type in short, separated paragraphs. Numbered or bulleted lists are effective ways to convey a series of points. Do not set entire paragraphs in uppercase (all capitals) or boldface type.

Titles and Fonts
Titles and captions should be short and easy to read. Use large lettering as this means a number of people can read the poster from a distance without overcrowding. Remember to caption your poster with the abstract title, authors names and affiliations.Headings should be a minimum of 50 point size. Whereas, 25 point size is good for text
