Per @stroucki on IRC (2015-01-20), "the talk poster is rather large to post and not be rude to others". We should be able to support a few paper sizes in addition to the standard 17"×11" tabloid size; namely, 11"×8.5" for smaller posters.

With that, we could also do 8.5"×5.5" half-sheets or 5.5"×4.25" quarter-sheets as needed, since those are the same ratios as the above.

If we used ISO 216 paper sizes...

... We'd never be able to get Catherine to print them for us ;)

I second this. Shelby noticed the same thing postering in Hamburg last night, the bulletin boards there are tiny. The 11x17s are still reasonable and eye-catching for larger bulletin boards like the massive ones in Wean.

Current workaround for the letter-size versions requested by @catern (particularly "grayscale" versions per #14):

  • Print to Adobe PDF from Google Chrome with margins set to 0" on the left and right; 0.4" on top and bottom.
