Scientific Poster Template - Massey University

This is my poster at the Image and Vision Computing New Zealand (IVCNZ) 2016 held at Massey’s Manawatu campus. It’s the visualisation of the paper I submitted to that conference. I’m too lazy to remove the actual content so you have to do that yourself.

To change the background image, find line

\includegraphics[width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight]{bird3.jpg}

and change bird3.jpg to anything you want.

The poster is A0 size, but temporarily resized to A4 when editing, so that the size stays manageable and you don’t have to zoom in everytime it’s recompiled. This is thank to package pgfpage and its command \pgfpagesuselayout{resize to}[a4paper]. When you send the poster for printing, remember to uncomment that line and compile again. I’m sure the printery knows how to resize A4 to A0, but it’s better to provide the right size right away, so the bitmap background doesn’t become pixelated.
