Haven't used latex-beamer. pdfscreen has nice navigation controls on the side of the pdf -- dunno whether latex-beamer can do that. Adding navigation and launch buttons, colours, on the fly colour themes (works well when you discover that the projector you are going to be displaying on has a dying faded tube), works well with ppower4 post processor Personally, pdfscreen is better then latex-beamer because my presentations have been customised to work with pdfscreen :) -- TimC Experiments must be reproducible; they should all fail in the same way. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
