Hi,
I wonder whether the following is a really frequent question, but I haven't been able
to figure it out. Sorry!
I have installed the most recent version of texpower, and also downloaded
config.landscapeplus from the contrib directory.
Now I am trying to process the example file seminardemo.tex, which I have copied to a
small test directory.
The processing method I am trying to use is latex -> dvips -> ps2pdf.
However, when I open the resulting pdf file in acrobat, it's not landscape, and the
image is also offset in a strange way.
I attach a log of what exactly I do, I hope there is a simple fix to this problem :)
Many thanks!!
