+This collection of files contains LaTeX packages for posters of ISO A3
+size and larger (ISO A0 is the default size). American paper sizes and
+custom paper is supported. In particular, poster.cls defines a
+document class which allows cutting and pasting most of an article to
+a poster without any editing (save reducing the size). A (pdf) manual is
+included as well.
+
+NOTE that this version does work for LaTeX, not just pdfLaTeX, as in
+previous versions. However, xdvi produces strange results, though a
+recent version of dvips does create good ps-files from the dvi files.
+
+Also note that logos must either be put in the current working directory
+or in the directories of your LaTeX distribution. For some reason
+graphicspath settings are ignored.
+
+An example can be found in the sciposterexample directory.
