SEAS Poster Printing Guidelines

• Please allow at least 24 hours for poster production. We cannot guarantee service with less than 24 hours' notice.


• ALL poster requests must be made to the IKON Copy Center on the west end of the first floor of Levine Hall.
  The email address is: copycenter@seas.upenn.edu.


• The budget code to be charged must be included in your e-mail to the Copy Center.


• Attach the file(s) to be printed to your e-mail to the Copy Center. NOTE: the plotter only supports .ppt and .pdf files.
  Any other format is not supported by the system. The Copy Center cannot convert your poster documents for you.


• Before you send your .pdf or .ppt file to the Copy Center, you must set the document properties to the appropriate paper
  size. We cannot resize files; the document properties of your file should be set to the size that you want your poster to be.


• The resolution of the images, and your document, should be at least 150dpi. 300dpi is even better.


• We have two sizes of paper on which to print posters: 36" (3') and 60" (5'). We will use the paper size that most closely
  matches your poster request. Poster layout can be portrait or landscape. Please note that we do not trim posters.


• The minimum size for posters is 20" x 30".


• The Copy Center will notify you when your poster is ready to be picked up.
