What is a poster, anyway?
A poster is traditionally formed from a collection of individual letter-size sheets of paper, each containing a slide or image, all attached to a piece of posterboard. With modern typesetting applications, it is often possible to create a single large-format document and print it in “tiles” on letter-size sheets that can be mounted side by side on posterboard to form the document. If you have access to a large-format printer, you may decide to print the document directly on a large sheet of paper (which should still be mounted on posterboard for strength). All these options are fine. At the conference, you will mount the posterboard on the wall of the session space. You should supply the posterboard and materials to attach the paper to it. SIGGRAPH 2006 will supply the materials to mount the posterboard on the wall.
