[Tex/LaTex] How to change section style using sciposter

posterssciposter

I am trying to get rid of the default "boxedsections" with shadows used in the sciposter class and replace them with either "plainboxedsections" or "plainsections".

In the manual three heading options are mentioned, but not how to switch between them.

The documentation indicates that these are class options. So I suggest you try

\documentclass[plainsections]{sciposter}

\documentclass[plainboxedsections]{sciposter}

[Tex/LaTex] subfloats not processed well with Sciposter

Since the sciposter document class provides its own figure code the subfig package does not recognize the figure as floating environment.

So using \captionsetup{type=figure} as first line of the figure which contains subfigures should make \subfloat work, i.e.

\begin{figure}[htp]
\captionsetup{type=figure}% tell subfig package that this is a figure

[Tex/LaTex] How to change fonts within the sciposter class

This works for me:

\documentclass{sciposter}

\usepackage{libertine}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

\begin{document}
\Huge Hello
\end{document}

The problem might be that you loaded a font package that doesn't provide a sans-serif font, e.g. mathpazo or fourier. In that case you need to add the following to your preamble:

\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\rmdefault}

This makes the serif font the default font. The standard for sciposter is to use the sans-serif font as default.
