In summary, here are the steps:

Login to the dashboard

Click on Digital Posters

Click on Events

Select the Event you want to add posters to

Click on Add Poster

To add a poster click on the Add Poster button or the + button

• Enter the following fields in the Poster Details

• Group – Select the group to add the poster
• Poster Description – a description for the poster
• Poster Author – will be displayed under the poster
• Product Categories – will be used for filtering

Click on Select Image/PDF and upload the file. When uploading PDF files, our system will automatically convert the PDF to PNG and resize the image.

We recommend using portrait orientation posters as the screen is in portrait orientation and landscape posters may not display correctly.

Select the folder to store the Posters

Drag and drop the file and select Start upload

Wait until the poster is completely uploaded and reaches 100%

You will see a tick once the poster is successfully uploaded and click the Return to file list

Select the poster you just uploaded

The Poster details will display the filename of the poster and the image

Press save once you have updated all the details

Once you press save, our system will notify the Kiosk a change was made and it will refresh the screen.

Avoid uploading the same filename to the system as the Kiosk will cache all the content locally meaning if you replace the poster with the same filename, the local cache may not update.

There are many benefits of using ePosters versus your traditional printed posters and some of these are:

• ePosters can be updated and distributed in real time meaning you no longer have to go through the waiting process of having it printed and organising someone to stick it to a wall. Since our ePoster solution is cloud-based you can push the content remotely via the Internet and the beauty is if you no longer have Internet access the system will still work. You can also make last minute changes and the ePoster stand will display these automatically when our software detects a change
• with ePosters you avoid damaging the property, wall or the area by no longer using sticky tape, glue, blu tack. We’ve seen it too many times that after the poster is removed, there is always a mark on the wall
• One screen (area) can display multiple posters by being able to navigate through a directory list. With the printed poster, you can only display one
• sustainability and environmentally friendly – ePosters are more sustainable and not only do you save on paper and printing but you’re avoiding the economic and environmental costs of printing conventional posters
• long-term cost savings – you can reuse the ePosters stands or even hire them at an affordable price and your business will end up saving hundreds of dollars
• enhance the interaction and engagement – who doesn’t love to be able to interact with dynamic content. With ePoster, the possibilities are endless as you can add different types of digital content. For example, you can display a poster directory, the user then selects which poster to display by using their finger. With our solution, you can then zoom into the poster and display specific areas and in addition, you can then add other features such as the ability to rate a specific poster, display video and so much more
• the wow factor – ePosters are more attractive and engaging. By using the latest commercial LED touchscreens the content will be vivid and bright to capture everyone’s attention. In addition, by using the touch feature on the ePosters, the user experience if further enhanced. You will be able to give the user the option to search for a particular poster and even provide feedback

ePosters is an obvious choice to make the switch today and contact us to see how we can help.
