This is a curated list of guidelines for scholarly posters.

  • Leave enough white space.

  • Paragraph and figure captions should be at least in a 24-point font (0.9 cm height) and headers at least in a 36-point font (1.2 cm height).
  • A serif font (e.g., Times) is often easier for reading main text, and a non-serif font (e.g., Arial or Helvetica) is more legible for headers and figure labels.
  • AGU Specific: Maximum poster dimensions are 1.8 meters wide by 1.2 meters high (6′ W x 4′ H). Allow for a 1-inch border.
