 PowerPoint Poster Template Size
Get a jump start on your poster by using one of our 8 professionally designed PowerPoint poster templates. We have created poster templates for the most common poster sizes from 36" x 48" all the way up to 48" x 96".
However, if you don't see the poster size you need, simply follow these steps below to convert one of our templates into the right size poster for you.
| 1 |
Find the PowerPoint template that is close in size or is a similar aspect ratio to the size you need. |
| 2 |
Download the template and open it in PowerPoint. |
| 3 |
Go to File > Page Setup. Under "Slides Sized for" set the page width and height to the size that you want your poster to be. (See note below.) |
Please Note: We can print any size up to 60" wide by any length. However, PowerPoint has a maximum page size of 56". Therefore, if you need a poster that is larger than 56" in width or height, you will need to set the page size in PowerPoint to exactly half of the finished poster size. We'll enlarge it 200% when printing. For example, for a finished poster size of 42" x 76", set the page size in PowerPoint to 21" x 38".
