Posters will be printed on a first come-first serve
basis, with priority given to posters required for upcoming
meetings. Although the turnaround time will be dependent
on order volume and printing priorities, posters will
generally be printed on the day of receipt and can be
printed as you wait.
Please call for discount pricing on orders of five
or more posters. For posters with dimensions that differ
from those shown above, please contact us for information
regarding formatting and pricing.
We do accept orders from organizations and institutions
outside of Drexel University. Please contact us for
more details.
Creating your poster and submitting it for printing
(1) We recommend that you construct your poster using
a template that has been pre-configured to conform with
the capabilities of the printer. At the present time,
templates are available in Microsoft PowerPoint. Templates are available on request
and can be forwarded by e-mail. Please call us if you
prefer to use other layout or illustration software
packages.
(2) Once you have completed and proofed your poster,
save it in its final form to a CD or Zip disk (100 MB
format preferred). Also include on the disk a text file
with your name, address, phone number, and e-mail address
so that we may contact you about your poster.
(3) We encourage you to deliver your disk in person
in the event that any last-minute corrections to formatting,
layout, or content are necessary. Please call Raphael Lukov (215-762-1784) to set up a printing appointment.
Alternatively, send the disk to:
