Awesome, but still, the javascript things are gone :(
Anyway, I'll try the resolution method.
By the way, is there any chance that I can use a stretched font without
disturbing the output routine? I think I can try a narrow font and re-draw
my pictures.

Hi guys,
This may sound crazy, but I have to do a presentation with a stretched
output.
The thing is, I have a laptop with a normal screen, and it'll be
plugged to
a very big wide screen monitor so that people can see the slides on
the
big screen. I have to look at my laptop and present for the people, so
what I'm thinking is make a stretched output on my 4:3 screen which
looks very narrowed and then the effect on the screen will be just as
normal.
Is there an easy option for this?
That was a nice exercise, here is a solution with a rather new mechanism
