QU ICK START
Zoom in and out As you work on your poster zoom in and out to the level
that is more comfortable to you.
Go to VIEW > ZOOM.
Title, Authors, and Affiliations Start designing your poster by adding the title, the names of the authors,
and the affiliated institutions. You can type or paste text into the
provided boxes. The template will automatically adjust the size of your
text to fit the title box. You can manually override this feature and
change the size of your text.
TIP: The font size of your title should be bigger than your name(s) and
institution name(s).
Adding Logos / Seals Most often, logos are added on each side of the title. You can insert a
logo by dragging and dropping it from your desktop, copy and paste or by
going to INSERT > PICTURES. Logos taken from web sites are likely to be
low quality when printed. Zoom it at 100% to see what the logo will look
like on the final poster and make any necessary adjustments.
TIP: See if your school’s logo is available on our free poster templates
page.
Photographs / Graphics You can add images by dragging and dropping from your desktop, copy
and paste, or by going to INSERT > PICTURES. Resize images
proportionally by holding down the SHIFT key and dragging one of the
corner handles. For a professional-looking poster, do not distort your
images by enlarging them disproportionally.
Image Quality Check Zoom in and look at your images at 100% magnification. If they look good
they will print well.

While interning at Audubon, surveys were given out to people that came into the Audubon Center. Each survey had eight questions asking them where they think the waste was coming from and how it changes their perception of the Salt River at Audubon. To obtain everyone’s answers, the Likert Scale was used for most questions because of how it gives everyone the option to be the most honest with the survey.
