General ⇒ a0poster | Creating a specific Header

[luzmara]

Hi all,

I'm writing a poster with a0poster, I have to make the poster according with the conference instruction (see attached picture), in the header I have to leave an space in the left of the title, in order that the organizing committee complete some information, but I couldn't do it.

Next is the code I'm using, how I can modified it, to introduce the space? In the PDF file, is the poster without the space.

Thanks for your help.
