Graphics: Create Posters with Microsoft
Use PowerPoint for posters
Do you need to create a large format poster for a conference or event?
You can use Microsoft PowerPoint, which is part of Office 365, and available on all University PCs. You can copy and paste content from Microsoft Word and Excel quickly and easily. The measurements of some common poster sizes are:
A0: 84cm x 118cm
A1: 59cm x 84cm
A2: 42cm x 59cm
Not sure where to start?
You can use our videos or links to get started. Or follow the step-by-step guide to creating effective academic posters from Bright Carbon, which includes downloadable templates, infographics and advice about scripting and layout.
The Digital Skills Team also run training courses for students and staff, and MS drop-in sessions on Wednesdays 10-11 AM, in office 405 on floor 4 of the SDRL.
