E-poster Tips – More Things to Do

Use the slideshow mode to change the display automatically during the day, then switch to the manual mode when you are presenting.

Avoid using too many slides. Past presenters have found that 10 slides are a good amount, neither too many nor too few.

Use a slide number footer to let the viewers who arrive mid-cycle of the slideshow know where they are in the presentation and how long they’ll wait until it begins again.
