How to Upload a Poster for a Poster Session

Poster sessions are an informative and interesting way to draw in attendees to your session, and as a speaker, you may be curious about the best way to add one to your page.

Here is a step-by-step guide to help you do just that. 

1. Navigate to the Speaker Portal
2. Select Speaker Details
3. Select the desired Session
4. Click Manage Documents
5. Click Upload
6. Select the File and Create a Title. Adding a Description and Comments Are Optional.
7. Click Upload

Once the file is uploaded, you will be able to see any files that have been added so far. Selecting Update will allow you to replace the file with another if you need to swap it out.

Selecting Download for the image you want to share will allow you to copy the document address. 

Once you have copied the address, go back to the Session Details page.

Scroll to the bottom until you see the box for Links.

Select the option to add an image and place the URL you just copied or any other image URL  in the box for Source. 

Once added, click anywhere in the Insert/edit image box to see the dimensions.

 For best results, the width should be no larger than 800 px. As a best practice, we recommend setting the width (the first number) at 100% and unchecking constrain proportions as shown below:

Please note: If you are unable to edit the links area, the event administrators have not allowed this access and may be putting the images in themselves. Please contact your event administrators if you have questions regarding access.

Once everything looks correct, hit Ok and save your changes.
