Indeed, to get incremental builds with this package pdfslide, you can
use ppower4. It is not necessary to use this pdfslide package, to make
use of ppower4.
I have not been aware of this package and it seems to be rather new
(according to file creation dates).

  But when I replace the pdfslide.sty I got with ppower4 by the other one, I
  get in trouble. Especially I am not able to work it with foils.

This is not meant to be mixed.
The pdfslide.sty from pp4sty.zip is meant as an initial configuration
to use the foils package for slides in pdf format.

  Is there something known about this problem?

Not to me, up to now.

  Or is there something planned to make these two versions of
  pdfslide.sty compatible?

It will not be possible to interchange or mix the two, because one is
a stand alone package and the other requires foils.

A work around for the time being can be to rename the pdfslide.sty
from pp4sty.zip to e.g. pp4slide.sty and use that in documents with
foils.
Or use pdfslide and abandon foils, if you like.

Different pdfslide.sty

1999-10-14 Thread Friedemann Kemm


Hello!

Today I found on CTAN that there is a pdfslide.sty in
/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported/pdfslide
that seems to be meant to be used in conjunction with ppower4.
But when I replace the pdfslide.sty I got with ppower4 by the other one, I
get in trouble. Especially I am not able to work it with foils.

Is there something known about this problem? Or is there something planned
to make these two versions of pdfslide.sty compatible?


Yours
