How and when to order Offprints and Posters?

Free and paid offprints and posters will be available once your article is going into print production. The Corresponding Author will receive an order invitation email at that time automatically. 

Please note that we can not provide you with a time estimate. For product information and prices, please check Offprints and Posters product information and prices.

Due to technical reasons, offprint and poster orders have to be placed separately as follows:


  • Offprints

Many Springer Nature journals offer free Offprints to article authors. To find out if your journal offers free Offprints, please check the Submission guidelines on the respective journals website.

Production and shipping of all of the above products will take place upon journal publication. For further information, please check Offprints and Posters estimated shipping times.
