\section{Background}
Dr. Mike Morrison's research on poster design psychology has led to widely
adopted layouts, with over 250\,000 downloads of his PowerPoint
version\footnote{\url{https://osf.io/6ua4k}}. This template offers a \LaTeX{}
alternative.
\section{Method}
\subsection{Central Abstract}
The main finding of your research is highlighted in large text on a dark
background to capture the reader's attention first. This key result, along with
any striking figures, is entered as the abstract using the \verb|\abstract{}|
macro.
\subsection{Multiple Authors}
You can include up to four authors with this class:
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{l|l}
\verb|\author{}| & \verb|\thirdauthor{}| \\
\verb|\secondauthor{}| & \verb|\fourthauthor{}|
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
\subsection{Built-in QR Codes}
You can include a QR code in your poster using the \verb|\qrdata{}| command.
While it may not be suitable for all cases (e.g., CUI or classified content), it
is useful in many situations. Simply input the URL into the \verb|qrdata|
command, and a QR code will be generated automatically---no need for external
tools or adjustments.
\subsection{Color Themes}
The \verb|antposter| class takes any one of the following color options to set
the background color of the center abstract area (default \verb|azure|):
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{l|l|l|l|l}
\texttt{blue} & \texttt{cyan} & \texttt{lime}
& \texttt{red} & \texttt{magenta} \\
\texttt{azure} & \texttt{green} & \texttt{yellow}
& \texttt{orange} & \texttt{purple}
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
\subsection{Logos}
By default, the ANT Center and AFIT logos are displayed. If you only want the
ANT Center compass, use the \verb|compassonly| class option. For the AFIT logo
alone, use \verb|afit|. If you want to use a custom logo, use the \verb|\logo{}|
command.
\subsection{Layouts}
There are two layouts: three-part (default) and two-part. To switch to two-part,
use the \verb|twopart| option in the document class.
