STRUCTURES Poster Template
based on the Beamerposter package

------------------
OVERVIVEW:
------------------

The template comes in two versions:

- Standard (white background, "beamercolorthemestandard.sty")
- Dark (dark background, "beamercolorthemedark.sty")

You can switch between the two by (un)commenting the respective include command in the TeX source file, respectively:

\usecolortheme{standard}
%\usecolortheme{dark}

The template folders includes the following source files and directories:

- "poster.tex": Example poster demonstrating the usage. This is your starting point for editing to insert your own contents and to change customisable theme options such as the color style or the logo of your institution.
- "beamerthemestructures.sty": The theme file to be included
- "beamercolortheme{standard/dark}.sty": Additional color theme file to be included
- "beamerposter.sty": The Beamerposter module required by the template
- "poster.bib": Bibliography file used in the example.

- "fig": Image files used for the theme, this is where you can place Logos etc.
- "fonts": Required font files for the theme


----------------------------------
SETTINGS FOR LANDSCAPE VS PORTRAIT
----------------------------------

- If you want to change the format (in cm) or orientation, you find the relevant lines in 19-26 of the main TeX file "poster.tex" (please have a look at the examples there).
- NOTE: Make sure to adjust also the logo size parameters (see Lines 91-97 of the "poster.tex") to achieve good results when switching the orientation or modifying the paper width/height. The logos are set to fixed sizes and, if using a too large value, will blow up the header, squeezing the main text.

-----------------------
How to compile the TeX:
-----------------------

The TeX template comes with a Makefile. On Linux, in a terminal run the command "make" to build the Makefile.
The Makefile runs the latexmk command. Alternatively, you can run this command directly.
