The color images in this collection have been prepared in two forms.
- PDF - these are ready to print files that will open in Adobe Acrobat Reader -(a free program available for download from Adobe.com) - often with multiple images on one page. This is the easiest way to use the designs. However, the image resolution is not as sharp in pdf files. If you are not familiar with editing graphics, this is the safest way to print the posters.
- JPG image files. These can be inserted into any document for any software program that allows images to be included. They are compatible with most software programs such as Microsoft Word, WordPerfect, Publisher, PrintShop, etc. They are designed to be printed in color.
Open full-size JPG images and drag and drop or copy and paste into your desired document, or use your software program instructions for inserting the JPG images. Adjust the size and arrange them on the page as desired. The images are at a high resolution and are designed to be printed at a full page size, unless otherwise designated - and can be sized smaller to fit more on a page or larger, according to your needs.
