A poster title is a long, continuous banner for the top of your poster exhibit. Your poster title can be 3, or 4, or 5 feet wide, or even wider still depending on your needs! Just let us know your exhibit's width and we'll make a title to fit. Your poster title can then be rolled up like a scroll to make it easy to carry.

We can also mount your poster title onto colored mat board with an inch of the colored mat board showing around the edge. We then hinge tape it into sections so you can just fold it up and place it into your luggage.

Design your own poster title using PowerPoint. See our Tip Sheet, "Creating Large Format Posters Using PowerPoint" under Creative University. Or, save yourself time by letting us design it for you.

Many venues require that the text for your title be 1 inch tall. To do that, use the Arial font bolded at 100 point size and the text will print at 1 inch tall. If you are designing your title in PowerPoint at half size (50% of the final output size) you'll need to set the font size to 50 points. The font size will be doubled when we print out the title at 200%. Note that other fonts may produce slightly different final sizes but will be fairly close to 1 inch tall.
