Creating A1 posters with LaTeX

Firstly, after downloading and installing the textpos package, begin the document with:

\documentclass{a0poster}
\usepackage[landscape,a1paper]{geometry}
\usepackage[absolute]{textpos}
\textblockorigin{0cm}{0cm}

Then, to position blocks of text on the page, use the textblock* environment, such as:

\begin{textblock*}{270mm}(530mm,13mm) % 270mm wide, 530mm left of and 13mm below top-left corner of page
 \section*{Hello World}
 The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
\end{textblock*}

In order to aid in positioning textblocks, temporarily adding the following to your preamble may be helpful:

\usepackage[colorgrid,texcoord]{eso-pic} % add a grid to the page
