How to prepare your scientific poster file

The easiest way is to start from PowerPoint (or Google Slides, Keynote, InDesign) and set the slide to the final poster size straight away: for an A0 use 84.1 × 118.9 cm, for an A1 use 59.4 × 84.1 cm. Working at real dimensions avoids blurry text and wrong proportions at print.

For images, charts and microscopy photos, use a resolution of at least 150 dpi at the final size: at that scale the eye sees no more, and the file stays manageable. Embed the fonts (export to PDF with "embed fonts") so titles and symbols don't shift. Finally, export to PDF — the format that best preserves layout and quality.

If in doubt, send your file to stampa@guug.it: we check dimensions, resolution and fonts for free before printing and tell you right away whether the poster will come out sharp. If your conference gave you specific guidelines (size, orientation, margins), attach them — we'll match their standard.

Frequently asked questions

What is the standard size for a conference poster? +
The most common size is A0 (84.1 × 118.9 cm), usually portrait; A1 (59.4 × 84.1 cm) is the more compact option. Many conferences specify exact dimensions and orientation in their author guidelines, so always check your event rules — and if needed, we print to any custom size.
What paper do you use for scientific posters? +
We recommend matte coated paper: the anti-glare finish keeps text, charts and tables perfectly readable under the bright lights of a conference hall. We only suggest glossy photographic paper when the poster is dominated by images and colour rendering is the priority.
How much does an A0 or A1 scientific poster cost? +
On matte coated paper it starts from €11 for an A1 and €15 for an A0 per copy (90 gsm paper, VAT included); on heavier 200 gsm paper it goes up to €19 (A1) and €27 (A0). Lamination, mounting on Forex board and a rigid poster tube are optional extras. We offer discounts for multiple copies — email your file to stampa@guug.it for an exact quote within the hour.
I need it tomorrow — can you print it same day? +
Yes. For a few pieces turnaround is short: drop off the PDF in the morning and pick up your poster in the afternoon. If you are in a real rush, call +39 06 4424 0707 and we will sort it out. Last-minute conference deadlines are routine for us.
How should I prepare the file? +
Set your document (PowerPoint, InDesign, etc.) to the final poster size (A0 = 84.1 × 118.9 cm), use images at least 150 dpi at that size, embed the fonts and export to PDF. If you are unsure, send us the file: we check dimensions, resolution and fonts for free before printing.
How do I transport the poster to the conference? +
We provide a rigid poster tube so it travels safely in a suitcase or by hand. Alternatively, mounting on Forex (foam PVC) turns it into a lightweight rigid panel, reusable and easy to hang on the stand. If you cannot come to Rome, we ship with tracked couriers — Italy in 24-48h, EU in 2-4 working days.
Do you print posters in English for international researchers? +
Yes. We print scientific posters in any language — you prepare the file, we handle the printing. We are in the Prati district, 200 m from the Vatican, convenient for visiting researchers, PhD students and academics in Rome. Our staff speaks English.
