How to Design an Award-Winning Scientific Conference Poster describes how to create a good conference poster. Keeping the hints in mind you can use Canva to create a poster, but it has limitations when using the free version.
There are a number of free templates available online for poster creation.
The biggest issue for displaying a poster at a conference is the size limits and your budget.
Note that printing companies normally accept pdf and jpg files for printing purposes.
Look at Assessment criteria for posters, especially:- Overall impression: Does my poster have a good structure?
- Blanks: Is my poster full of text passages and graphs, or is it well-balanced? Are there any blanks interrupting reading fluency?
- Relation between text and graphs: Do they complement one another as regards content and visualization?
- Text size: Is the text clearly legible or only partially?
- Structure and reading fluency: Is there a clear structure supporting reading fluency?
- Authors: Are the authors indicated on the poster? Are there any contact details?
- Content: Are the three principles «Look at me!», «Read me!», and «Ask me!» put into practice? Are the main statements of my poster clearly presented?
