I haven't used beamer, but I do use powerdot -- a similar class -- on a regular basis, and I can see the problem with fonts. If you have a relatively large amount of text, and relatively few figures (even if they are fairly large) you might get good results with a very straightforward approach using article class and the multicol package to put perhaps three columns onto a single landscape page. With this method I'd put the figures and tables in floats and let LaTeX figure out where to put them -- but I'd also expect to waste a lot of time juggling margins, font sizes and spacing to fill the page without overflowing it. -- Les ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
