make

Rasterization

To create a rasterized version (some plotters have trouble with the PDF) use:

make rasterized

You can use this file to create a small PNG of the poster. It is best rescaled in Gimp using Sinc (Lanczos3) method.

To create a minimum size image which will be still readable (although not necessarily nice) use:

# renders fonts with low quality
gs -sDEVICE=png16m -dDownScaleFactor=2 -r50 \
    -o poster.png poster.pdf
# optimizes compression
optipng -o9 poster.png
# simplify colors (destroys some colors, esp. gradients)
pngnq -n 128 -s 3 poster.png
# overwrite the original file
mv poster-nq8.png poster.png
