+The LaTeX beamerposter package is an extension of the LaTeX beamer and the
+a0poster classes in order to create LaTeX posters, e.g. a DIN-A0 size LaTeX
+poster in landscape or portrait orientation. Furthermore it is possible
+to scale the poster fonts to your needs.
+
+The package allows you to benefit from the nice color box handling and
+alignment in the beamer class (e.g. with rounded corners and shadows)
+in order to create quite fast pretty conference posters.
+
+Features:
+ * scalable fonts using the fp and type1cm packages
+ * posters in DIN-A0, DIN-A1, DIN-A2, DIN-A3, DIN-A4, and custom sizes
+ like double DIN-A0 possible
+ * still applicable to custom beamer slides, e.g. 16:9 slides for a
+ widescreen (i.e. 1.78 aspect ratio)
+ * orientation: landscape or portrait
+ * debug mode
