Poster sizes and templates
The American Neurological Association (ANA) specifies that posters can be any size up to 72 inches tall by 42 inches wide (182cm tall x 106 cm wide).
Posters that do not match the dimensions ordered will be printed as closely as possible to the requested size, ensuring there is no distortion of the content.
For those who have already prepared their poster, you can utilize our Poster Size Checker to determine the best print size for your design within the 72x42" area.
Confirming Your Poster Size in PowerPoint:
► For Windows Users: Access the size of your poster by navigating to the "Design" tab in PowerPoint. Within the ribbon, locate and click on "Slide Size" followed by selecting "Custom" to view your poster's dimensions.
► For MAC Users: To find out your poster's size, click on the "File" menu, proceed to "Page Setup," and then select "Custom."

Poster ordering guidelines
The required poster submission format is PDF.
If you have used PowerPoint to design your poster, convert it to a PDF by going to Save As > PDF. Some versions of PowerPoint may have an Export option. However, do not "Print to PDF" because the quality of your PDF will be compromised.
Confirm that everything on your poster is legible. Open your PDF and view it at 200% magnification. Make sure all your graphics look good, especially the quality of any screen captures you may be using. If you cannot easily read any text on the screen at 200%, you may not be able to read the text on the poster.
Shipping and Pickup
You can have your poster shipped to any address you choose. Free shipping is included in the poster prices. Expedited shipping options are also available.
