Who is the Features & Long Form poster for?
Features & Long Form belongs to the Communications & Media section rather than to a school year, because humanities is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning journalism can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.
When should you use the Features & Long Form poster?
When the news is known and the job is to make it matter. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Features & Long Form belongs on the wall where that humanities work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.

What size does the Features & Long Form poster print at?
Features & Long Form is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download.
