LaTeX 研究海报

概述

研究海报是会议、研讨会和学术活动中科学交流的重要媒介。本技能提供了使用 LaTeX 包创建专业、视觉吸引力强的研究海报的全面指导。生成具有适当布局、排版、配色方案和视觉层次的出版质量海报。

何时使用此技能

此技能应在以下情况下使用：

为会议、研讨会或海报展示环节创建研究海报
为大学活动或论文答辩设计学术海报
为公众参与准备研究的视觉摘要
将科学论文转换为海报格式
为研究小组或部门创建模板海报
设计符合特定会议尺寸要求的海报（A0、A1、36×48英寸等）
构建具有复杂多栏布局的海报
在海报格式中集成图形、表格、方程式和引用

使用科学示意图进行视觉增强

⚠️ 强制要求：每张研究海报必须至少包含 2-3 个使用 scientific-schematics 技能生成的 AI 图形。

这不是可选的。海报主要是视觉媒介——文字过多的海报无法有效传达信息。在最终确定任何海报之前：

至少生成两个示意图或图表
全面海报的目标是 3-4 个图形（方法流程图、关键结果可视化、概念框架）
图形应占据海报面积的 40-50%

如何生成图形：

使用 scientific-schematics 技能生成 AI 驱动的出版质量图表
只需用自然语言描述您想要的图表
Nano Banana Pro 将自动生成、审查和完善示意图

如何生成示意图：

python scripts/generate_schematic.py "your diagram description" -o figures/output.png

AI 将自动：

创建具有适当格式的出版质量图像
通过多次迭代进行审查和完善
确保可访问性（色盲友好、高对比度）

2. 海报布局和结构

遵循视觉传达原则创建有效的海报布局。有关全面的布局指导，请参阅 references/poster_layout_design.md。

常见海报部分：

标题/标题：标题、作者、单位、徽标
引言/背景：研究背景和动机
方法/途径：方法论和实验设计
结果：关键发现，附有图形和数据可视化
结论：主要收获和意义
参考文献：关键引用（通常为缩写形式）
致谢：资金、合作者、机构

基于列的布局：2栏、3栏或4栏网格
基于块的布局：内容块的灵活排列
Z 型流：逻辑性地引导读者浏览内容
视觉层次：使用大小、颜色和间距来强调关键点

3. 研究海报设计原则

应用基于证据的设计原则以获得最大影响力。有关详细设计指导，请参阅 references/poster_design_principles.md。

正文：最小 24-36pt，以便从 4-6 英尺处可读
使用无衬线字体（Arial、Helvetica、Calibri）以获得清晰度
最多限制使用 2-3 种字体系列

颜色和对比度：

使用高对比度配色方案以提高可读性
机构调色板用于品牌推广
色盲友好调色板（避免红绿组合）
留白是活跃空间——不要过度拥挤

高分辨率图形（打印至少 300 DPI）
所有图形上都有大而清晰的标签
整个海报中一致的图形样式
策略性地使用图标和图形
平衡文本与视觉内容（建议 40-50% 为视觉内容）

\documentclass[final,t]{beamer}
\usepackage[size=a0,scale=1.4,orientation=portrait]{beamerposter}

% Remove default beamer margins
\setbeamersize{text margin left=0mm, text margin right=0mm}

% Use geometry for precise control
\usepackage[margin=10mm]{geometry}  % 10mm margins all around

% Remove navigation symbols
\setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{}

% Remove footline and headline if not needed
\setbeamertemplate{footline}{}
\setbeamertemplate{headline}{}

tikzposter - 全页设置：

\documentclass[
  25pt,                      % Font scaling
  a0paper,                   % Paper size
  portrait,                  % Orientation
  margin=10mm,               % Outer margins (minimal)
  innermargin=15mm,          % Space inside blocks
  blockverticalspace=15mm,   % Space between blocks
  colspace=15mm,             % Space between columns
  subcolspace=8mm            % Space between subcolumns
]{tikzposter}

% This ensures content fills the page

baposter - 全页设置：

\documentclass[a0paper,portrait,fontscale=0.285]{baposter}

\begin{poster}{
  grid=false,
  columns=3,
  colspacing=1.5em,          % Space between columns
  eyecatcher=true,
  background=plain,
  bgColorOne=white,
  borderColor=blue!50,
  headerheight=0.12\textheight,  % 12% for header
  textborder=roundedleft,
  headerborder=closed,
  boxheaderheight=2em        % Consistent box header heights
}
% Content here
\end{poster}

常见问题及修复：

问题：海报周围有大片白边

% Fix for beamerposter
\setbeamersize{text margin left=5mm, text margin right=5mm}

% Fix for tikzposter
\documentclass[..., margin=5mm, innermargin=10mm]{tikzposter}

% Fix for baposter - adjust in document class
\documentclass[a0paper, margin=5mm]{baposter}

问题：内容未填满垂直空间

% Use \vfill between sections to distribute space
\block{Introduction}{...}
\vfill
\block{Methods}{...}
\vfill
\block{Results}{...}

% Or manually adjust block spacing
\vspace{1cm}  % Add space between specific blocks

问题：海报超出页面边界

% Check total width calculation
% For 3 columns with spacing:
% Total = 3×columnwidth + 2×colspace + 2×margins
% Ensure this equals \paperwidth

% Debug by adding visible page boundary
\usepackage{eso-pic}
\AddToShipoutPictureBG{
  \AtPageLowerLeft{
    \put(0,0){\framebox(\LenToUnit{\paperwidth},\LenToUnit{\paperheight}){}}
  }
}

# Check PDF dimensions (should match poster size exactly)
pdfinfo poster.pdf | grep "Page size"

# Expected outputs:
# A0: 2384 x 3370 points (841 x 1189 mm)
# 36x48": 2592 x 3456 points
# A1: 1684 x 2384 points (594 x 841 mm)

步骤 2：视觉检查清单

以 100% 缩放打开 PDF 并检查：

布局和间距：

内容填满整个页面（没有大片白边）
列之间间距一致
块/部分之间间距一致
所有元素正确对齐（使用标尺工具）
没有重叠的文本或图形
留白均匀分布

标题清晰可见且较大（72pt 以上）
章节标题可读（48-72pt）
正文在 100% 缩放下可读（最小 24-36pt）
没有文本被截断或超出边缘
整个海报中字体使用一致
所有特殊字符正确呈现（符号、希腊字母）

所有图形正确显示
没有像素化或模糊的图像
图形标题存在且可读
颜色按预期呈现（不褪色或太暗）
徽标清晰显示
二维码可见且可扫描

所有交叉引用正常工作
页面边界正确（没有内容被截断）

步骤 3：缩小比例打印测试

必要的打印前测试：

# Create reduced-size test print (25% of final size)
# This simulates viewing full poster from ~8-10 feet

# For A0 poster, print on A4 paper (24.7% scale)
# For 36x48" poster, print on letter paper (~25% scale)

打印测试检查清单：

从 6 英尺外可读标题
从 4 英尺外可读章节标题
从 2 英尺外可读正文
图形清晰且易于理解
颜色打印准确
没有明显的设计缺陷

步骤 4：数字质量检查

字体嵌入验证：

# Check that all fonts are embedded (required for printing)
pdffonts poster.pdf

# If any show "no", recompile with:
pdflatex -dEmbedAllFonts=true poster.tex

图像分辨率检查：

# Extract image information
pdfimages -list poster.pdf

# Check that all images are at least 300 DPI
# Formula: DPI = pixels / (inches in poster)
# For A0 width (33.1"): 300 DPI = 9930 pixels minimum

文件大小优化：

# For email/web, compress if needed (>50MB)
gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 \
   -dPDFSETTINGS=/printer -dNOPAUSE -dQUIET -dBATCH \
   -sOutputFile=poster_compressed.pdf poster.pdf

# For printing, keep original (no compression)

步骤 5：可访问性检查

颜色对比度验证：

文本-背景对比度比 ≥ 4.5:1 (WCAG AA)
重要元素对比度比 ≥ 7:1 (WCAG AAA)
在线测试：https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/

通过色盲模拟器查看 PDF
在红绿模拟下信息不会丢失
使用 Coblis (color-blindness.com) 或类似工具

步骤 6：内容校对

检查所有文本的拼写
验证所有作者姓名和单位
检查所有数字和统计数据的准确性
确认所有引用正确
审查图形标签和标题
检查标题和标题中的拼写错误

请同事审查海报
30 秒测试：他们能识别主要信息吗？
5 分钟审查：他们理解结论吗？
记录任何令人困惑的元素

步骤 7：技术验证

LaTeX 编译日志审查：

# Check for warnings in .log file
grep -i "warning\|error\|overfull\|underfull" poster.log

# Common issues to fix:
# - Overfull hbox: Text extending beyond margins
# - Underfull hbox: Excessive spacing
# - Missing references: Citations not resolved
# - Missing figures: Image files not found

修复常见警告：

% Overfull hbox (text too wide)
\usepackage{microtype}  % Better spacing
\sloppy  % Allow slightly looser spacing
\hyphenation{long-word}  % Manual hyphenation

% Missing fonts
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}  % Better font encoding

% Image not found
% Ensure paths are correct and files exist
\graphicspath{{./figures/}{./images/}}

步骤 8：最终打印前检查清单

发送给打印机之前：

LaTeX Research Posters

Overview

Research posters are a critical medium for scientific communication at conferences, symposia, and academic events. This skill provides comprehensive guidance for creating professional, visually appealing research posters using LaTeX packages. Generate publication-quality posters with proper layout, typography, color schemes, and visual hierarchy.

When to Use This Skill

This skill should be used when:

Creating research posters for conferences, symposia, or poster sessions
Designing academic posters for university events or thesis defenses
Preparing visual summaries of research for public engagement
Converting scientific papers into poster format
Creating template posters for research groups or departments
Designing posters that comply with specific conference size requirements (A0, A1, 36×48", etc.)
Building posters with complex multi-column layouts
Integrating figures, tables, equations, and citations in poster format

Visual Enhancement with Scientific Schematics

⚠️ MANDATORY: Every research poster MUST include at least 2-3 AI-generated figures using the scientific-schematics skill.

This is not optional. Posters are primarily visual media - text-heavy posters fail to communicate effectively. Before finalizing any poster:

Generate at minimum TWO schematics or diagrams
Target 3-4 figures for comprehensive posters (methodology flowchart, key results visualization, conceptual framework)
Figures should occupy 40-50% of poster area

How to generate figures:

Use the scientific-schematics skill to generate AI-powered publication-quality diagrams
Simply describe your desired diagram in natural language
Nano Banana Pro will automatically generate, review, and refine the schematic

How to generate schematics:

python scripts/generate_schematic.py "your diagram description" -o figures/output.png

The AI will automatically:

Create publication-quality images with proper formatting
Review and refine through multiple iterations
Ensure accessibility (colorblind-friendly, high contrast)
Save outputs in the figures/ directory

When to add schematics:

Research methodology flowcharts for poster content
Conceptual framework diagrams
Experimental design visualizations
Data analysis pipeline diagrams
System architecture diagrams
Biological pathway illustrations
Any complex concept that benefits from visualization

Ensuring Full Page Coverage :

Posters should use the entire page without excessive margins. Configure packages correctly:

beamerposter - Full Page Setup :

\documentclass[final,t]{beamer}
\usepackage[size=a0,scale=1.4,orientation=portrait]{beamerposter}

% Remove default beamer margins
\setbeamersize{text margin left=0mm, text margin right=0mm}

% Use geometry for precise control
\usepackage[margin=10mm]{geometry}  % 10mm margins all around

% Remove navigation symbols
\setbeamertemplate{navigation symbols}{}

% Remove footline and headline if not needed
\setbeamertemplate{footline}{}
\setbeamertemplate{headline}{}

tikzposter - Full Page Setup :

\documentclass[
  25pt,                      % Font scaling
  a0paper,                   % Paper size
  portrait,                  % Orientation
  margin=10mm,               % Outer margins (minimal)
  innermargin=15mm,          % Space inside blocks
  blockverticalspace=15mm,   % Space between blocks
  colspace=15mm,             % Space between columns
  subcolspace=8mm            % Space between subcolumns
]{tikzposter}

% This ensures content fills the page

baposter - Full Page Setup :

\documentclass[a0paper,portrait,fontscale=0.285]{baposter}

\begin{poster}{
  grid=false,
  columns=3,
  colspacing=1.5em,          % Space between columns
  eyecatcher=true,
  background=plain,
  bgColorOne=white,
  borderColor=blue!50,
  headerheight=0.12\textheight,  % 12% for header
  textborder=roundedleft,
  headerborder=closed,
  boxheaderheight=2em        % Consistent box header heights
}
% Content here
\end{poster}

Common Issues and Fixes :

Problem : Large white margins around poster

% Fix for beamerposter
\setbeamersize{text margin left=5mm, text margin right=5mm}

% Fix for tikzposter
\documentclass[..., margin=5mm, innermargin=10mm]{tikzposter}

% Fix for baposter - adjust in document class
\documentclass[a0paper, margin=5mm]{baposter}

Problem : Content doesn't fill vertical space

% Use \vfill between sections to distribute space
\block{Introduction}{...}
\vfill
\block{Methods}{...}
\vfill
\block{Results}{...}

% Or manually adjust block spacing
\vspace{1cm}  % Add space between specific blocks

Problem : Poster extends beyond page boundaries

% Check total width calculation
% For 3 columns with spacing:
% Total = 3×columnwidth + 2×colspace + 2×margins
% Ensure this equals \paperwidth

% Debug by adding visible page boundary
\usepackage{eso-pic}
\AddToShipoutPictureBG{
  \AtPageLowerLeft{
    \put(0,0){\framebox(\LenToUnit{\paperwidth},\LenToUnit{\paperheight}){}}
  }
}

Print Preparation :

Generate PDF/X-1a for professional printing
Embed all fonts
Convert colors to CMYK if required
Check resolution of all images (minimum 300 DPI)
Add bleed area if required by printer (usually 3-5mm)
Verify page size matches requirements exactly

Digital Display :

RGB color space for screen display
Optimize file size for email/web
Test readability on different screens

11. PDF Review and Quality Control

CRITICAL : Always review the generated PDF before printing or presenting. Use this systematic checklist:

Step 1: Page Size Verification

# Check PDF dimensions (should match poster size exactly)
pdfinfo poster.pdf | grep "Page size"

# Expected outputs:
# A0: 2384 x 3370 points (841 x 1189 mm)
# 36x48": 2592 x 3456 points
# A1: 1684 x 2384 points (594 x 841 mm)

Step 2: Visual Inspection Checklist

Open PDF at 100% zoom and check:

Layout and Spacing :

Content fills entire page (no large white margins)
Consistent spacing between columns
Consistent spacing between blocks/sections
All elements aligned properly (use ruler tool)
No overlapping text or figures
White space evenly distributed

Typography :

Title clearly visible and large (72pt+)
Section headers readable (48-72pt)
Body text readable at 100% zoom (24-36pt minimum)
No text cutoff or running off edges
Consistent font usage throughout
All special characters render correctly (symbols, Greek letters)

Visual Elements :

All figures display correctly
No pixelated or blurry images
Figure captions present and readable
Colors render as expected (not washed out or too dark)
Logos display clearly
QR codes visible and scannable

Content Completeness :

Title and authors complete
All sections present (Intro, Methods, Results, Conclusions)
References included
Contact information visible
Acknowledgments (if applicable)
No placeholder text remaining (Lorem ipsum, TODO, etc.)

Technical Quality :

No LaTeX compilation warnings in important areas
All citations resolved (no [?] marks)
All cross-references working
Page boundaries correct (no content cut off)

Step 3: Reduced-Scale Print Test

Essential Pre-Printing Test :

# Create reduced-size test print (25% of final size)
# This simulates viewing full poster from ~8-10 feet

# For A0 poster, print on A4 paper (24.7% scale)
# For 36x48" poster, print on letter paper (~25% scale)

Print Test Checklist :

Title readable from 6 feet away
Section headers readable from 4 feet away
Body text readable from 2 feet away
Figures clear and understandable
Colors printed accurately
No obvious design flaws

Step 4: Digital Quality Checks

Font Embedding Verification :

# Check that all fonts are embedded (required for printing)
pdffonts poster.pdf

# All fonts should show "yes" in "emb" column
# If any show "no", recompile with:
pdflatex -dEmbedAllFonts=true poster.tex

Image Resolution Check :

# Extract image information
pdfimages -list poster.pdf

# Check that all images are at least 300 DPI
# Formula: DPI = pixels / (inches in poster)
# For A0 width (33.1"): 300 DPI = 9930 pixels minimum

File Size Optimization :

# For email/web, compress if needed (>50MB)
gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 \
   -dPDFSETTINGS=/printer -dNOPAUSE -dQUIET -dBATCH \
   -sOutputFile=poster_compressed.pdf poster.pdf

# For printing, keep original (no compression)

Step 5: Accessibility Check

Color Contrast Verification :

Text-background contrast ratio ≥ 4.5:1 (WCAG AA)
Important elements contrast ratio ≥ 7:1 (WCAG AAA)
Test online: https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/

Color Blindness Simulation :

View PDF through color blindness simulator
Information not lost with red-green simulation
Use Coblis (color-blindness.com) or similar tool

Step 6: Content Proofreading

Systematic Review :

Spell-check all text
Verify all author names and affiliations
Check all numbers and statistics for accuracy
Confirm all citations are correct
Review figure labels and captions
Check for typos in headers and titles

Peer Review :

Ask colleague to review poster
30-second test: Can they identify main message?
5-minute review: Do they understand conclusions?
Note any confusing elements

Step 7: Technical Validation

LaTeX Compilation Log Review :

# Check for warnings in .log file
grep -i "warning\|error\|overfull\|underfull" poster.log

# Common issues to fix:
# - Overfull hbox: Text extending beyond margins
# - Underfull hbox: Excessive spacing
# - Missing references: Citations not resolved
# - Missing figures: Image files not found

Fix Common Warnings :

% Overfull hbox (text too wide)
\usepackage{microtype}  % Better spacing
\sloppy  % Allow slightly looser spacing
\hyphenation{long-word}  % Manual hyphenation

% Missing fonts
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}  % Better font encoding

% Image not found
% Ensure paths are correct and files exist
\graphicspath{{./figures/}{./images/}}

Step 8: Final Pre-Print Checklist

Before Sending to Printer :

PDF size exactly matches requirements (check with pdfinfo)
All fonts embedded (check with pdffonts)
Color mode correct (RGB for screen, CMYK for print if required)
Bleed area added if required (usually 3-5mm)
Crop marks visible if required
Test print completed and reviewed
File naming clear: [LastName]_[Conference]_Poster.pdf
Backup copy saved

Printing Specifications to Confirm :

Paper type (matte vs. glossy)
Printing method (inkjet, large format, fabric)
