Turnaround Time

Use of WPI Marks

Use of WPI Marks must be in accordance with the Official WPI Visual Identity Guidelines, and proper file formats must be used. Only images downloaded from the WPI Official WPI Artwork & Templates Library may be used in your poster. Download the .emf version for MS Office Applications or the .eps version for Image Editing or Graphic Design programs. You may not use downloaded logos or related marks from any WPI Web site other than the Official Artwork & Templates Library.

Files and Formats

Posters must be created in Microsoft PowerPoint. Posters can be printed on either 24, 36, or 42 inch wide paper and is charged by the length in linear feet. Please set your page layouts accordingly, allowing for a 1/2 inch margin all the way around, or the poster will be printed with the "Shrink to Fit" setting checked, which works in most situations. Including this margin will help ensure, however, that the poster prints as expected.
