SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It streamlines the time-consuming process of converting a compiled research paper into a print-ready conference poster with poster-appropriate layout, figure selection, and LaTeX generation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Conference-poster generation: Builds an A0/A1 article-class poster using tcbposter (not beamer) to avoid common LaTeX capacity issues.
  • Paper-to-poster content extraction: Extracts only poster-relevant portions from paper sections and organizes them into a structured content plan and LaTeX layout.
  • Figure handling for editability: Copies selected figures, converts PDF figures to PNG for embedding (e.g., for PPTX workflows), and keeps poster figures consistent.
  • Venue-aware styling: Applies configurable venue color schemes and enforces readable grid/typography constraints for poster-distance viewing.
  • Resume-capable workflow: Persists progress in poster/POSTER_STATE.json so long poster builds can resume within 24 hours.

Quick Start

Use the paper-poster skill to generate a poster from your compiled paper in the paper/ directory by running it in the repository and then confirming the first content-plan checkpoint it produces.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a LaTeX conference poster from a compiled research paper?

Generate a conference poster by extracting poster-relevant content from your compiled paper and composing a LaTeX tcbposter template with venue-specific styling to produce a print-ready A0/A1 layout.

Why use tcbposter instead of beamer for generating a conference poster in LaTeX?

tcbposter is used for conference poster generation to avoid common LaTeX capacity issues that occur when using beamer, ensuring a stable article-class build pipeline for large print-ready formats.

How do I handle PDF figures when building a LaTeX poster for PowerPoint embedding?

Handle PDF figures by converting them to PNG format during the poster generation workflow, enabling safe embedding for PPTX workflows while keeping poster figures consistent and editable.

Can I resume a long conference poster build if the LaTeX generation process is interrupted?

Resume interrupted poster builds using a checkpointed multi-phase flow that persists progress in POSTER_STATE.json, allowing long poster builds to resume within 24 hours.

Does the paper-to-poster workflow pause for user confirmation before generating the final LaTeX?

The workflow uses a checkpointed multi-phase flow that pauses for user confirmation after producing POSTER_CONTENT_PLAN, ensuring the extracted paper content meets your requirements before final LaTeX generation.

What do I need to apply venue-aware styling to a print-ready conference poster?

Apply venue-aware styling by configuring venue-specific color schemes and enforcing readable grid and typography constraints optimized for poster-distance viewing during the LaTeX template composition.
