ARTICLE AND WEATHER INLINE ADS FOR TABLETS

Overview

In-line tablet creative comprises of the Tablet Rectangle or TRec and the Tablet Board or TBoard, which are available on article pages alongside IAB standard medium rectangle, half page and leaderboard shapes (please note that the Weather section supports only standard IAB leaderboard and MREC shapes).

The TRec (or half page or medium rectangle) and TBoard (or leaderboard) are not available separately as they compliment each other and only one of them is served on the page, depending on the article’s layout.

The TRec shape is displayed on articles where the article body does not include secondary images or multimedia links. It occupies the right-hand-side of articles. In instances where secondary article images or multimedia is displayed in this area, the TRec unit is substituted by the TBoard shape, which is rendered at the end of the article, occupying the full width of the content pane.

Similarly, the two shapes of weather ads are also only available as a single line item booking as each shape is specific to the device orientation.

Please also read the tablet advertising guidelines prior to commencing creative production!
