HOW TO PREPARE A PRESENTATION

Instructions for PowerPoint

Please save your presentation in PowerPoint 2013 or later (* ppt) or (* .pptx) so that we can guarantee the successful opening of your presentation on our computers.
We recommend saving the presentation in PPTX format. Prepare a presentation in 16:9 format (screens in lecture rooms are in this ratio).

Pictures/Videos

JPG is the most widely used format for “inserting” images into a presentation.
GIF, TIF, or BMP formats are also acceptable.
A resolution of up to 250 dpi is sufficient for the high-quality display of images during a presentation. Higher image resolution only increases file size and does not improve the resolution of the dots on the canvas. Please compress the saved images in the presentation to the recommended resolution.
If you have a video stored in your presentation, please arrive well in advance to test it. The recommended video format is MP4.

Fonts

Only fonts that are part of the basic MS-Windows installation will be available. Using other fonts may cause your presentation style to display incorrectly.
Recommended fonts: Arial, Times New Roman, Tahoma, Calibri
If you insist on using special fonts, you must save these fonts along with the presentation. Use the following procedure: Click on “tools” then “options” then “save” and check the box “Insert True Type fonts”, then save the presentation.

Transfer of Presentations and Storage

On what to bring a presentation

Please bring your files and one of the media listed.
- USB flash drive
- External HDD or SSD
Save all files associated with the presentation in one folder (PowerPoint, movie/video files, etc.).
Always make a backup of your presentation on a second medium, external drive, or cloud backup – Google drive, email.

Where to upload your presentation at the congress

Please come to the technician in the main lecture room in time before the congress or during the breaks, where it will be possible to record and rehearse the presentations.
During your performance, you can control your presentation using the remote control, which will show you the technician present during the break.
Using your own laptop is not recommended, only as a last resort and without a warranty, it is possible to inquire and consult a technician.

E-POSTERS

Posters will be presented in electronic form on touch LCD screens. E-posters will be displayed during the day when the poster section is listed in the program and will be available to all participants.

For production, you can use, for example, MS PowerPoint or specialized graphics programs (see below).

The area for displaying e-posters on the screen is 52 x 71 cm (w x h). The e-poster does not have to exactly match these dimensions - the width always adapts to the size of the area (however, we recommend setting the document width to 52 cm during production), the length is arbitrary (the poster can be moved by moving your finger across the screen).

The recommended minimum font size for a document width of 52 cm is 17-20 points.

E-poster LCD screens are equipped with a "ZOOM" function, so any detail (picture, graph) on the e-poster can be enlarged when viewing.

Making an e-poster:

1) in MS PowerPoint:

a) set the document size (width 52 cm, height as needed) in “Design/Page Layout"

b) insert texts, graphs and images

2) in other programs (e.g. Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, Quark Xpress, etc.)

a) set the document size (width 52 cm, height as needed)
