Hi Mary,

I produced two posters using Latex last year. I found the following
website which has a very nice and easy to use/alter template

http://www2.lut.fi/~jkamarai/misc/poster/latexhelp.html

In unix it was really easy to compile because they include a Makefile
to do all of the hard work for you. I'm not sure how well that would
work from windows though. I have attached my .tex file if anybody
wants to compare it to the website version and see what bits I needed
to change to alter the size of the poster,location of the boxes,
colour, font etc. (although they wont be able to compile it without
my images).

Hope this helps
Stuart

If anyone is able to offer any advice or useful links for students
currently in Year 2 and preparing their posters, if you would like to
send them to me I could put them on the webpage I made last year.
Advice
on latex posters would be particularly helpful
Thanks -Mary
