Titles – 90pt
Headings – 60pt
Body text – 36pt

Graphs
We’ve created some pre-designed graphs, tables and diagrams in the sticker sheet to copy and paste on to your poster and insert your own data.
However, we recognise that you may not be using Microsoft Office to create your charts and graphs. In this case, we recommend exporting the graph from whatever software you’re using (Origin, for example) as an EMF image, and pasting that into your poster template. You can then ungroup the image and format the elements of the chart to match your poster template fonts and colours. Don’t forget to regroup the graph afterwards to make it easier to move and resize!

To make the most of your graphs and data, focus your audience’s attention on key information by using PowerPoint shapes or arrows. Edit the line colour, fill colour, and transparency to highlight important trends or values on your graphs.

Illustrations and icons
Icons are great for storytelling and can really help to cut down your word count. We’ve created a pre-coloured icon set for each sticker sheet – if you’re looking for something specific, you can search for more icons by going to Insert > Icons in PowerPoint. You can recolour PowerPoint icons to match your template using the Fill colour tool. In fact, there’s almost nothing you can’t do with icons in PowerPoint! Learn more in this article.
