- Who is the Por vs Para poster for?

- When should you use the Por vs Para poster?
- Para points forward to a goal. Por points back to a cause. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Por vs Para belongs on the wall where that languages work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.

- Por vs Para is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download.
