INSTRUCTIONS TO POSTER PRESENTERS

We look forward to your participation in the 11th International Symposium and Exhibit on Supercritical Fluid Chromatography, Extraction and Processing. It is important that you confirm your intent to present the poster by completing/returning the Meeting Registration Form by July 26 so the poster is not withdrawn.

Poster Set-up Times

All posters should be affixed to poster boards early Monday morning (between 9-11am).

All posters should remain affixed to poster boards throughout the meeting.

Please bring the supplies you will need to affix the posters.

Poster Presentation Times

Please see scientific program for day and time of presentation.

Poster Removal Times

All posters must be removed on Wednesday between 11:30am and 1:00pm.

Anything remaining on boards after 1:00pm will be discarded.

POSTER BOARD SIZE

Each author of a poster paper will be provided with a poster board 4 feet high and 8 feet wide (one poster per 4'x8' board).

The paper number will be located on an upper corner of the poster board, large enough to be seen 6 feet away.

Reprint request envelopes will be located on a bottom corner of the poster board so you may receive business cards requesting reprints or details about the paper presented.

All material to be posted must be prepared in advance because supplies for this purpose will not be available at the site.

Be sure to bring the supplies you will need to mount your poster.

Do not write on or mark the poster boards.

POSTER PREPARATION

A title banner should be prepared which is not more than 4 ft. long.Lettering should be at least 1" high. The banner should include the title, authors and address.

The minimum size of each page should be at least 8 ½" x 11." Larger sizes may be used, but size consistency is encouraged.

A minimum letter size of 14 point is recommended. Large point sizes should be used for headings. Please use block lettering and not script.

For best visual effect, use simple to semi-complex figures that can be read easily (from 4 ft. away). Labels should use type at least 18 points high.

Arrange poster sheets for logical flow from top to bottom, left to right. Number poster sheets in the order you wish them to be viewed. Consider using connecting lines (for example, colored tape) to guide the viewer. Block and subtitle several poster sheets devoted to a specific part of the work; e.g., apparatus, sample work-up, experimental details, etc.

One page should be devoted to a concise, straightforward statement of the objective of the work, and should be placed at the beginning of the board. Other pages should demonstrate in some detail the work that was done and typical results. Excessive detail is not encouraged. One page should present the results and/or conclusions of the work, and should be placed at the end of the poster presentation.

If you submit several poster abstracts, and many of them are accepted, it is your responsibility to make sure that all your poster abstracts are covered at the assigned times. No one author may present more than two posters at one time. If you have more than two posters to present at the same time, please ask your co-authors to help you or withdraw the extra posters. Note, the co-authors must be registered as conference attendees, not booth staff
