Conclusion (Helvetica bold 48p)
The purpose with a poster is to instantly catch the
reader’s interest. Start with the main message. Make
it short. You only have seconds! Too much information
makes people pass without reading.
Present what has been done, by whom, together with
the result and a conclusion.

For further information
Many posters are difficult to
read. Important results are often
hidden in too many words. Don’t
try to include everything. It is
easier to follow the message if
you are logical.
(Helv. Roman 36p)
Prepare a more complete
material (paper) to be handed
out to people who want deeper
information. Detailed facts,
background, methods etc. to
digest at a later occasion.
The purpose
with the poster
Reach out with the message!
Create attention, interest and
curiosity. The poster is
supposed to work as an
advertisment, not a report.
Using pictures
Pictures are eyecatchers! And
you don’t need to use too many
words.
A good photo or an explanatory
graph does the job. It is well
worth the effort to try to find a
relevant picture. The attention
rises dramatically!
Text in pictures and graphs.
Helvetica or Arial, 24p
Tip
Don’t use too small typefaces if
you want the poster to be
legible. Approx. 40pts will do
(32-48).
If you want to be able to read
the poster from a distance, use
Helvetica or Arial, which are
typefaces without serifs.
Text in pictures and graphs.
Helvetica or Arial, 24p
Sum up with a few visions for
the future. What are you doing
now and where is it going to
lead… (Helv.Bold 36p)
