Digital Posters

Texas Law LCD Screens — Displayed in groups of two or three, these monitors display **Featured Events** from our web calendar, **Digital Posters** promoting events and information for students, and **Faculty Scholarship**.

The Law School’s Marketing and Communications Office manages the digital displays throughout the Law School.

How to Make and Submit

Student organizations, Law School offices, and UT units may submit a request to display a digital poster that promotes deadlines, events, important dates, and information relevant to Texas Law students. Submitted posters are reviewed for clarity, purpose, appropriateness, and timeliness.

Accepted digital posters are displayed in rotation on the hallway displays and may be featured in our weekly Instagram stories.

: Not sure where to start? Try Canva.com or PowerPoint (a PPT template can be found here). Size your poster to 1080 wide x 1920 tall pixels, 9:16 ratio. We prefer PNG files (without transparency). We welcome Canva links, PPT, or PDF files. (Let us know if you need any assistance.)

Keep content to a minimum, as a poster is meant to be quick and to the point. Include only the basics: the who, what, when, and where. Event posters must include the event title, the organization’s name and/or logo. Please include the date, time, registration information, and call-to-action link (if applicable).

Call-to-Action Links

Please include a URL, even if the poster has a QR code. If your URL is long, you can shorten it with an online tool like bit.ly or tiny.url. Note: Posters using QR codes without a URL may not be shared to our Instagram stories.
Tip: Leave off the https:// as well as any trailing /. Example: instead of “https://law.utexas.edu/” use “law.utexas.edu“
Please TEST YOUR LINK and your QR Code before submitting your poster.

Fonts/Typefaces – limit fonts and colors to two or three each.

Backgrounds – to assist with readability, simplify background graphics and choose background colors that contrast with your text to make it sure it’s legible.

Margins / Clear Space – keep text away from the edges.

Texas Law Branding – any Texas Law-branded marks must follow these branding guidelines.

At least three business days before your event/program should start to be publicized, please email your files to digitalposters@law.utexas.edu with the following info:

Date of event/deadline
Name of organization/department
Title of event/announcement
Instagram account (if any)
URL link used in the poster (if any)
And attach your file(s), named with the same (abbreviated) info:
- YYYY-MM-DD_MyOrg_Program.png

Digital posters will be posted for up to two weeks before a program, event, or deadline.
