Poster Printing

The SVC procedures have changed.

Requirements

  • 2 Files - Poster file & Order form (Powerpoint conversion is available). See Poster size guidelines >
  • Naming convention - Use LAST NAME on both Order form and Poster file.
    It allows us to track files easily.
  • Poster PDF = FINAL size of the intended poster. PDF Resources >
    Default is 8.5 x 11 (a common mistake - Go into advanced settings / options for your preferred method to set the final page size).
    You can't just use the PPT page size to set the PDF size.
  • Proofread your PDF - SVC is not responsible for the cost of reprinting based on typos or pixelation due to small image or poster files provided.
  • Completed Order form - Use the Excel Form if you do not have Acrobat.
    Reader will not allow you to save your text.
  • Upload both files - Zip both files together or click "Add another file" in the Yousendit dialog box to include 2 files in 1 upload.
  • A delay of at least 1 day will result if any 1 of the above requirements is not included or missed.
