General ⇒ Poster Width and Height

[john_latex]

I could not able to change the poster width and height for the sample.tex file. Attached is the poster style file and poster tex file.

Since poster.sty uses "a0size" package to set the poster dimensions. Is it possible to use other dimensions in poster.sty instead of "a0size"? For example, to generate a poster with 25" wide and 35" tall.

I replaced poster.sty code

Code: Select all

\RequirePackage{a0size}

by this

Code: Select all

\RequirePackage[mag=\magstep3,paperwidth=30truein,%
paperheight=40truein,margin=0.5in,nohead,nofoot]{geometry}

But I'm not sure either the generated pdf output is of 30" X 40".

Please help me is the replaced code is working and also please suggest how to print "portrait" poster. Thanks in advance.
