When you process the following small file: \documentclass[a4]{seminar} % \input seminar.bug % \input seminar.bg2 \begin{document} \begin{slide} \centerline{Slide Test} \end{slide} \end{document} with latex-dvips-ps2pdf, this gives PDF files in landscape orientation, because of the following (the only) line in seminar.con: \renewcommand{\printlandscape}{\special{landscape}} However, with pdflatex, the slide is typeset in landscape, but the page is displayed as portrait, and therefore the slide is truncated on the right.=20 I guess this can be easily corrected like this: -\renewcommand{\printlandscape}{\special{landscape}} +\usepackage{ifpdf} +\renewcommand{\printlandscape}{% + \ifpdf + some code I don't know + \else + \special{landscape}% + \fi +} But I do not know which special commands are needed for PDF. Do you know, or should I ask Heiko Oberdiek? Gru=DF, Frank --=20 Frank K=FCster Inst. f. Biochemie der Univ.
