Remember that viewers should be able to grasp the meaning of the poster without listening to an explanation or reading a report. To assist in this:
- Communicate the message simply
- Do not clutter the poster with too much detail
Use title lettering at least 2.5 cm high with text lettering at least 8 mm high and 0.7 mm thick. - Use pie charts, histograms, graphs, tables, clip art, drawings, symbols and photos to illustrate key points. Use colour effectively in these and make them simple, rather than complex.
- Design the poster to be read from left to right and top to bottom
- Where possible, use one-line statements or bullet phrases to highlight key points, rather than full sentences (this list is set off by bullet points)
- Use bold face type for headings and sub-headings
- Proofread the poster carefully. Ask a person independent of the project to review the text for clarity, organisation and brevity
- Bring white correction tape or fluid and black felt tip pen to the Congress to correct errors or scratches

Staff to advise during poster mounting
If an author is unable to present his poster during the congress, he absolutely needs to notify the EAHP by sending an email to abstract@eahp.eu. If same situation happens 3 years in a row, the EAHP reserves the right to reject any other GPI submitted by the same author for future congresses. In addition, should the author not insure that their poster is hung during the congress either by the author or a colleague, the GPI will be removed from the online version of the EAHP Website.
