Hi Rich, This is one man's opinion -- take if for what it's worth. I always make my handouts EXACTLY the same as the slideshow. No N-Up, nothing like that. They're a black and white representation of the (currently 95 page) slide show. Yep, that's a substantial printing cost. However, several times while I've been giving a Troubleshooting Course, the notebook or projector have malfunctioned, become unavailable, whatever. I then teach off the handouts -- no harm, no foul. I've seen speakers get wiped out by video problems, and it's not pretty. Live is so much easier when you can just say "OK, for the rest of the day we'll just work directly with the handouts". By the way, my presentation/handout is done in (have mercy) OpenOffice Impress, not LyX. Customers insist on changing the handouts, so I need something Powerpoint compatible. However, my Instructor Notes are in LyX. SteveT Steve Litt Author: Universal Troubleshooting Process books and courseware http://www.troubleshooters.com/
