Yes. > Can I get Seminar to work with hebrew? (Or prosper or Beamer or > somthing else?) Can you give me a direction to how to do it? In principle, there's no reason why not. Try it. Here's a general guideline: the less packages you use, and the less complicated these packages are, the smaller the likelihood of running into incompatibility problems. Hence, my guess is that seminar is likely to give you less trouble with Hebrew than prosper or beamer. In a recent release of IvriTeX, Tzafrir added some support that should make prosper run smoother with Hebrew. I never tried it. Finally, just because there exist special "presentation" packages, it doesn't mean you have to use them. I don't. All that's really needed is to adjust the margins so that your output document will be the right size to fit a screen. If you want an example of how this is done, look at the sources of my two Haifux presentations, both of them done in Hebrew (and other languages) with LaTeX. http://www.haifux.org/lectures/81/ http://www.haifux.org/lectures/93/ -Ron. P.S. D. P. Story's excellent article, "Using LaTeX to create quality PDF documents for the World Wide Web", is presently unavailable from its usual location that is linked to from the Haifux web site. I don't know if this is temporary, or if the article is gone forever.
