Poster Printing

[Jeffrey Tadlock]

I know there are some ambassadors who have printed the posters from here:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/MarketingCollateral

What size did you have the posters printed at?  What file format did
you give the printer to have them printed?  How did you generate that
file format?

Thanks!
Jeffrey

Hi Jeffrey,
I'm also curious, additionally, where do you guys order the printing?

Thanks,

I am able to order the printing from most local print shops.  This also
includes Kinkos and Staples.  One thing interesting to point out regarding
the last two is that they have evening hours which may be convenient for
you.

However, I have been running into problems finding any shops who can use the
SVG files.  Currently I am looking into converting the SVG files into JPEGS
that are the same size as the end media that I will be printing.

Hi Jason,
Are we going to get reimbursement for the printing fees? If so, how is
the process of getting it? Additionally, is it better to create a
month report of our spending and ask for reimbursement at the end of
the month, or ask it as soon as when we spend money?

Additionally, as an Ambassador, do we get assignments of the events?
Or we decide on what events we're planning to do?

Thanks,

If there is an event that you would like to represent Fedora at and you
would like money from Fedora to pay for event materials;
then you will need to request a budget for that event from the Fedora
Ambassadors Steering Committee.

You should also make sure that this event is listed on the FedoraEvents
page:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraEvents

As to the exact procedures for submitting receipts, etc for the event money,
I am not sure what they are.
Hopefully, someone more knowledgeable on these procedures can
explain/document that.

No, you are not assigned to an event.  Rather, sometimes there are events
listed that don't have an owner but is looking for one.  Or if there is an
event that is not listed, that you would like to rep Fedora at, then feel
free to add the event to the FedoraEvents page with yourself as the owner.

Thanks Jason for clearing things up, I really appreciate it! Could
more than one Ambassador be owners of an event? (e.g. two ambassadors
are representing Fedora at the same region).

Thanks,
Grady

Absolutely.  Everything is controlled through the FedoraEvents page on 
the wiki.

Grady,

Take a look at the recent threads on this list (posted yesterday) about 
Budget, and that should help to answer your questions.  And then feel 
free to ask me if those threads create more questions than they answer!
