抄録

Laying out an academic poster, that is, allocating content to multiple columns and blocks and placing figures and tables, places a considerable burden on its author. Research Poster Studio (RPS) is an open-source desktop GUI and command-line (CLI) application that supports this work. A poster is represented as a set of text files in YAML, Markdown, and BibTeX, in which columns, blocks, and height modes are described declaratively. Users adjust the layout in the GUI and export the poster to PDF, PNG, HTML, or SVG; the CLI automates validation and export. RPS is implemented with Tauri v2, React, and Rust for Windows, macOS, and Linux. The source code is available on GitHub and archived on Zenodo under the Apache-2.0 licence. Because the representation is textual, posters can be version-controlled and regenerated, and RPS can be extended to other domains through additional themes and exporters.
