Communication tools for Researchers

Communicating CSAFE Research

If you use the LaTeX templates for either slides or a poster, be sure to use XeLaTeX to typeset/compile the document. In addition, you may need to install the fonts in the “fonts” folder of the LaTeX poster template. This can be done by double-clicking on each font file and choosing the “install font” option (on a Mac) or the “install” option (on Windows).
