Equipment
- Roll-Up
- Flyer console
- 1 high table, 2 stools/chairs
- OSGeo flyer, FOSSGIS Flyer, OSGeo-Live Postcards from FOSSGIS e.V.
- big OSGeo stickers - printed
- OSGEo Flyer - printed
- Banners:
http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/marketing/exhibitionpack/ I suggest both: OSGeo_popup and OSGeo_popup2 Ask printer/see on printer-site, whether the PDF of SVG format is needed. Silk finish or silk matt finish for readability (light glare during exhibitions is high)
- Brochure:
OSGeo_Brochure_2010_PRINT_A4_spread.pdf (this is single A4 back and front) I suggest minimum paperweight of 100 gram paper, silk or silk matt finished. Ask printer to fold, preferably not do so yourself (bothersome and never a crips bend) Usually I count max 100 brochures per exhibition day on average. Now, 300 will do I expect.
- Table runner
http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/marketing/exhibitionpack/ If printer is able to print on cloth, you could order: OSGeo_tablerunner Please check with printer if PDF or SVG file format required
- OSGeo-Live 10.0 on USB
