Steps from approval to pickup Heading link
-
Preparing your Poster
- ETL will ONLY accept poster files in PDF.
- If your poster was created in Microsoft PowerPoint, your file will be in the PPT format – you will need to convert this file to PDF.
- To do so, open your file in Microsoft PowerPoint, hit File > Export… and choose the File Format to be PDF.
- It is the user’s responsibility that the PDF images are not low resolution images or the poster will have blurry images.
- For your Unit and College specific logos please visit here https://marketing.uic.edu/
- Please include the size of the paper that you want to be printed.
- * ETL has two printers. They support max width of 44″ or 24″. Technically, there is no height limit until the roll finishes.* If ETL doesn’t receive the paper size for the poster, we will print it to default size of 44″ * 36″.
