What is the best practice for logos?
When placing a logo on a scientific abstract poster, the CNS practice for logo size is:

  • Size: The logo should be 2-3 inches wide, which is approximately 5-10% of the poster’s width.
  • Resolution: Use a high-resolution logo (minimum 300 DPI) to ensure clarity.
  • Placement: Position the logo at the top of the poster—top left or top right.
  • White Space: Maintain ample white space around the logo to keep it distinct from other elements.

This balance ensures the logo is visible and professional and does not detract from the poster’s scientific content.
