I have the misfortune to be commanded to produce ppt. So I took one of my
equations, in lyx. I chose beamer so I get something that'll look good on a
slide. I put
\beamertemplatenavigationsymbolsempty
so crop will work.
When exported export/pdf(crop), it looks OK, but it's too small. I import to
M$
PPT by opening in acroread and copy file to clipboard.
So I need something that'll resize the pdf (or convince lyx/beamer to output
something bigger in the first place).
I tried the latter without success.
Putting in preamble
\geometry{paper=a4paper}
didn't seem help.
Finally, I found this magic incantation:
gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sPAPERSIZE=a5 -dFIXEDMEDIA -dPDFFitPage -
dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -o eq1_2.pdf eq1.pdf
Then run through
pdfcrop
Finally, not a bad result (oh, did you want that centered on the slide?)
Any better ideas?
