+business cards, labels for your files, stickers, pins and

+\begin{frame}
+  \frametitle{How to use it}
+
+  Just add this line to the header of your latex-file:
+
+  \code{\bs{}usepackage[{\itshape tdf-file,other options}]\{ticket\}}
+
+  Use the letter or article documentclass and 
+  set up the paper-size that you need.
+\end{frame}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{frame}[fragile]
+  \frametitle{The ticket definition file}\hypertarget{tdf}{}
+A sample ticket definition (\code{lz1680.tdf}) for a \lq{}LEITZ\rq{}-product is:\\
+\begin{quote}
+  \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
+    {\scriptsize
+\begin{verbatim}
+%%
+%% ticket for "Leitz 1680" 
+%% pre-cutted label for wide files
+%%
+\unitlength=1mm
+%% tested for an HP5SiMX, adjust it for your printer
+\hoffset=-16.2mm
+\voffset=-6.6mm
+\ticketNumbers{1}{4}
+\ticketSize{189}{56.5}     % in unitlength
+\ticketDistance{0}{9.8}    % in unitlength
+\end{verbatim}
+      }
+    \end{minipage}
+\end{quote}
+The meaning of \code{\bs{}unitlength} is obvious, \code{\bs{}hoffset} and 
+\code{\bs{}voffset} are used to adjust the printed output.
+\code{\bs{}ticketNumbers\{n$_x$\}\{n$_y$\}} are the number of the tickets
+on the sheet in horizontal and vertical direction.
+\code{\bs{}ticketSize\{width\}\{height\}} is the size of one ticket and
+\code{\bs{}ticketDistance\{dist$_x$\}\{dist$_y$\}} are spaces
+between the tickets.
+\end{frame}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{frame}
+  \frametitle{Missing the ticket definition file}
+If you like to test a new ticket definition or you like to create only a single output without reusing those definitions anymore, \ticket{} assumes default values which can be
+redefined in your file.\\
+Simply call \ticket{} without any ticket definition:
+
+\code{\bs{}usepackage[{\itshape other options}]\{ticket\}}
+
+and add your definitions directly to the head of the file after loading ticket.sty.
+\end{frame}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{frame}[fragile]
+  \frametitle{How to fill your ticket}\hypertarget{ticket}{}%
+  \ticket{} enables a picture-environment for all tickets. 
+  You can put things 
+  into this picture with \code{\color{red}\bs{}ticketdefault} and \code{\color{red}\bs{}ticket}.
+  Both commands offer one argument.\\
+  \begin{exampleblock}{\code{\bs{}ticketdefault}}
+  is used to put a default and unique background to your  ticket, that will be -- of course -- not changed for all tickets unless
+  you change it with:\\
+%  \begin{quote}
+    \begin{minipage}[t]{.5\textwidth}

+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{frame}
+  \frametitle{Special commands}
+\begin{exampleblock}{reset tickets}
+  You can add additional page-breaks with \code{\bs{}newpage\bs{}ticketreset}. This clears the ticket-buffers and sets the corresponding values to initial values.
+This can be used if you create a handful of tickets multiple times.
+\end{exampleblock}
+
+\begin{exampleblock}{\code{\bs{}backside}}
+is useful for flash-cards, see the use-cases below.
+\end{exampleblock}
+
+\begin{exampleblock}{skip tickets}
+Once you printed a series of tickets you mostly end up with some empty stickers on your sheet. In this case use \code{\bs{}ticketskip\{5\}} to skip 5 tickets (New feature)
+\end{exampleblock}
+\end{frame}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{frame}[fragile]
+  \frametitle{Organising and reading input}
+  In general it is a good idea to create a file that contains all definitions and the whole latex-setup and a second file that contains only the data that you like to print which can be referenced by \code{\bs{}input}. 
+
+For example, if you reference a huge database of names of people which are used for the pins of a conference, you can easily write a script (perl, python...) that extracts the data to a file that is itself latex-formated with a \code{\bs{}myticket\{  \}\{  \}\{  \}} on each line.
+
+Sometimes -- of course -- you only have to print only a small amount of data and all data can easily be written to a single file. 
+
+Sometimes a small generator-function can help to create numbers on tickets:
+
+\begin{quote}
+    \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
+      {\scriptsize
+\begin{verbatim}
+\newcounter{numcards}

+\begin{frame}
+  \frametitle{Use-cases}
+  Some examples were referenced at the beginning of this manual. I will finish this short introduction with an overview of special examples and their implementations...
+\end{frame}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{frame}[fragile]
+\begin{block}{Files and pins}
+This is a simple example for your files. 
+\end{block}
+The same applies to pins. Start with a \code{\bs{}ticketdefault}, with this background:
+\begin{quote}
+    \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
+      {\scriptsize
+\begin{verbatim}
+\renewcommand{\ticketdefault}{%
+  \put(155,5){\begin{sideways}%

+  \put(150,50){\begin{rotate}{180}\Huge C O M P U T E R\end{rotate}}%
+}
+\end{verbatim}
+        }
+    \end{minipage}
+\end{quote}
+\end{frame}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{frame}[fragile]
+\vspace*{10mm}
+Now, create the content of the \code{\bs{}ticket} which differs:
+\begin{quote}
+    \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
+      {\scriptsize
+\begin{verbatim}
+\newcommand{\filelabel}[3]{\ticket{%
+    \put(33,48){\begin{sideways}\bfseries\Large#1\end{sideways}}%
+    \put(43,5){\begin{sideways}%
+        \begin{minipage}[t]{50mm}%
+          {\bfseries\large#2}\\[2ex]\large#3%
+        \end{minipage}%
+      \end{sideways}}%
+}}
+\end{verbatim}
+        }
+    \end{minipage}
+\end{quote}
+
+And fill the tickets:
+\begin{quote}
+    \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
+      {\scriptsize
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{document}
+...
+\filelabel{1}{\LaTeX{} - styles}{Standard styles\\Own styles\\%

+\end{quote}
+\end{frame}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{frame}[fragile]\vspace*{-4mm}
+\begin{block}{Business-cards}
+In this example, the \code{\bs{}ticketdefault} is empty, since we need a front and and background that differs:
+\end{block}
+\begin{quote}
+    \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
+      {\scriptsize
+\begin{verbatim}
+\renewcommand{\ticketdefault}{}%

+        }
+    \end{minipage}
+\end{quote}
+\end{frame}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{frame}[fragile]\vspace*{10mm}
+And fill the tickets:
+\begin{quote}
+    \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
+      {\scriptsize
+\begin{verbatim}
+% a counter, which makes life easier...
+\newcounter{numcards}

+\end{quote}
+\end{frame}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{frame}[fragile]\vspace*{-4mm}
+\begin{block}{Flashcards}
+In this case we work with two different \code{\bs{}ticket}-definitions since we have a file
+with two different commands. However, this can be changed according to your taste:
+\end{block}
+\begin{quote}
+    \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
+      {\scriptsize
+\begin{verbatim}
+% now what do you like to put in your ticket
+\newcommand{\card}[2]{\ticket{%
+    \put(32.5,15){\makebox[0mm]{\centering{\huge{\textbf{#1}}}}}
+ }}
+\newcommand{\raiz}[3]{\ticket{%
+    \put(2,31){{$\sqrt{\enspace}$}}
+    \put(32.5,15){\makebox[0mm]{{\huge{\textit{{ #1 }}}}}}
+}}
+\end{verbatim}
+        }
+    \end{minipage}
+\end{quote}
+
+All data is in a file:
+\begin{quote}
+    \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
+      {\scriptsize
+\begin{verbatim}
+...
+\begin{document}
+\input{words}
+\end{verbatim}
+        }
+    \end{minipage}
+\end{quote}
+\end{frame}
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{frame}[fragile]\vspace*{10mm}
+Now change the command for the backside:
+\begin{quote}
+    \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
+      {\scriptsize
+\begin{verbatim}
+\renewcommand{\card}[2]{\ticket{%
+    \put(3,30){\parbox{58mm}{\large{\textbf{ #1:}}}}%
+    \put(4,23){\parbox[t]{58mm} {\small {\blt #2}}}%
+ }}
+\renewcommand{\raiz}[3]{\ticket{%
+    \put(3,30){\parbox{58mm}{\textbf{#1:} #2}}%
+    \put(3,13){\parbox{58mm}{#3}}%
+ }}
+\end{verbatim}
+        }
+    \end{minipage}
+\end{quote}
+
+Use the special command \code{\bs{}backside}, do some further adjustment for your printer and reread the file:
+\begin{quote}
+    \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
+      {\scriptsize
+\begin{verbatim}
+\backside%
+\oddsidemargin=8pt
+\input{words}
+...
+\end{verbatim}
+        }
+    \end{minipage}
+\end{quote}
+
+If you want to print this on a duplex-printer rearrange the pages with this command for example:
+\begin{quote}
+    \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
+      {\scriptsize
+\begin{verbatim}
+psselect -p1,3,2,4 ex_flashcard.ps ex_flashcard_dup.ps ...
