**Guidelines for poster printing**

  - Posters are printed Monday to Friday 9am to 3pm. 
  - Your printing request **must be received __at least two working days__ before you need it**. For example, if you make a request on Thursday, the poster will not be printed until the following Monday.
  - This service is for students in the Computer Science and Computer Engineering Departments. If you are in a different department, your advisor must make the printing request and state the affiliation with the Computer Science Department.  
  
  - To request a poster,** send an email to cshelpdesk@virginia.edu.** 
  - The only acceptable poster file format is  “.pdf” (Portable Document Format).
  - Attach the poster's “.pdf” file to the email.
  - **Mandatory:** The email's __subject line should be__:                                                                     **Poster printing: request from {UVA ID}, needed by {Date and time}, size {Arch D or Arch E} with or without tube**. For example "Poster printing: request from abc1de needed by August 23, 4pm, size arch D, no tube"
  - Only **Arch D** 24"x36" or **Arch E** 36"x48" poster sizes can be printed.
  - Specify in the body of the email:

    the title of the poster, for example "My Excellent Groundbreaking Research Findings"
    the size (24x36 or 36x48)
    the orientation (landscape or portrait)
    
    attach the PDF file
