Everything has one size, the size it has on the festival sheet. The mark is 200 mm type; a still is four cells by two; a title is 60 mm. Nothing here can be made bigger or smaller. It can only be moved, a cell at a time (hold Alt to move freely), and whatever does not fit is cut. Change the paper and the poster gets bigger or smaller around the same things. The printer cuts too: a laser printer cannot print its last 5 mm, a screen print keeps 20 mm clear, litho prints to the edge. The information is the exception that proves it: at its one small size it always fits, so it is always printed whole and cannot be moved where it would be cut. The mark and the dates are the gesture: underprint them in a tint and print over them, or overprint them in a second ink.
