In his web page [2] I find the statement: Since 1996, I have developed many LaTeX packages, mostly used only locally at the labs I was employed at the time. For my PhD defense in 2000, I developed Prosper, a package to write more beautiful LaTeX slides in a simpler way than what was available at the time. Somehow, it filled a need and caught on. However, Prosper heavily relies on Adobe Postscript, and cannot be used when producing Adobe PDF files directly from the LaTeX source, as would be done by a tool such as pdflatex. With more modern contenders around, I decided in 2009 to stop supporting it. If you are now making the move to LaTeX slide design, please consider packages like Powerdot (self-advertised as ``based on Prosper'') or Beamer (my favorite, and the one I myself use now) instead. So we won't get a bug fix for it. Tagging it wontfix for now. H. [1] https://ctan.org/pkg/prosper?lang=de [2] http://frederic.goualard.net/ -- sigfault #206401 http://counter.li.org
