Directory tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/beamerposter
The LaTeX beamerposter package is an extension of the LaTeX beamer and the
a0poster classes in order to create LaTeX posters, e.g. a DIN-A0 size LaTeX
poster in landscape or portrait orientation. Furthermore it is possible
to scale the poster fonts to your needs.
The package allows you to benefit from the nice color box handling and
alignment in the beamer class (e.g. with rounded corners and shadows)
in order to create quite fast pretty conference posters.
Features:
* scalable fonts using the fp and type1cm packages
* posters in DIN-A0, DIN-A1, DIN-A2, DIN-A3, DIN-A4, and custom sizes
like double DIN-A0 possible
* still applicable to custom beamer slides, e.g. 16:9 slides for a
widescreen (i.e. 1.78 aspect ratio)
* orientation: landscape or portrait
* debug mode

beamerposter – Extend beamer and a0poster for custom sized posters
The package enables the user to use
beamer style operations on a canvas of
the sizes provided by a0poster; font
scaling is available (using packages such as
type1cm if necessary).
In addition, the package allows the user to benefit from the nice
colour box handling and alignment provided by the beamer class
(for example, with rounded corners and shadows). Good looking
posters may be created very rapidly.
Features include:
– scalable fonts using the fp and type1cm packages;
– posters in A-series sizes, and custom sizes like double
A0 are possible;
– still applicable to custom beamer slides, e.g. 16:9
slides for a wide-screen (i.e. 1.78 aspect ratio);
– orientation may be portrait or landscape;
– a ‘debug mode’ is provided.
