It has many advantages over - SliTeX. Here are some of the style's special features: - * It is a LaTeX style, rather than another format. - * It is compatible with AmS-LaTeX. - * You can use any fonts that work with LaTeX, including PostScript - fonts and AmSFonts. - * Slides can be landscape and portrait within the same file. - * Color is supported through PostScript. - * The slides can have a frame and a colored background. - * The magnification can be changed with a single command. - * Overlays can be produced from a single slide environment. - * Accompanying notes, such as the text of a presentation, can be put - outside the slide environments. The slides, notes or both together - can then be typeset in a variety of formats. - Some of these features require a PostScript output device. - -FILES: - - LaTeX: - seminar.cls : The main class file. - seminar.sty : The main style file. - seminar.con : The main config file. - sem-page.sty : Page parameters. - semlayer.sty : The semlayer style option (overlays and color layers). - semhelv.sty : The semhelv style option . - semlcmss.sty : The semlcmss style option. - semcolor.sty : The semcolor style option. - semrot.sty : THe semrot style option. - slidesec.sty : The slidesec style option. - sem-a4.sty : The sem-a4 style option. - xcomment.sty : The macros for omitting notes. - 2up.tex : Macros for printing documents two-up. - 2up.sty : The same as 2up.tex, but with .sty extension. - npsfont.sty : Macros for defining new PostScript fonts with the NFSS. - fancybox.sty : Box tips and tricks for LaTeX. - - Documentation: - sem-user.tex : User's guide for seminar.sty. - sem-user.ind : Index for sem-user.tex. - semsamp1.tex : A sample document for seminar.sty. - semsamp2.tex : Another sample document for seminar.sty. - 2up.doc : Documentation for 2up.tex. - fancybox.doc : Documentation for fancybox.sty. - tvz-hax.sty : For typesetting sem-user.tex and sem-code.tex. - tvz-code.sty : For typesetting sem-code.tex. - tvz-user.sty : For typesetting sem-user.tex. - sem-read.me : This file. - read-me.pst : The read-me file for the PSTricks package. - - Sources: - seminar.doc : Documented code for seminar.sty. - semlayer.doc : Documented code for semlayer.sty. - xcomment.doc : Documented code for xcomment.sty. - sem-make.tex : For extracting code from seminar.doc and semlayer.doc. - sem-code.tex : For typesetting seminar.doc and semlayer.doc. - xc-make.tex : For extracting code from xcomment.doc. - xcomment.tex : For typesetting xcomment.doc. - -GETTING STARTED: - - 1. Put the input files in a directory where your TeX looks for inputs. - - 2. Typeset and print sem-user.tex. - - 3. Read the preface "Getting Started", and then the appendices. - - 4. Typeset semsamp1.tex and semsamp2.tex. - - 5 If upgrading from v0.92, see the changes listed at the end of this - file. If upgrading from v0.91 or earlier, good luck. - -HACKERS: - - The files seminar.doc, semlayer.doc and xcomment.doc contain the - documented code, using Frank Mittelbach's doc system. - See sem-code.tex and xcomment.tex for instructions on typesetting - these files. - See sem-make.tex and xc-make.tex for instruction on extracting - stripped input (.sty) files from these .doc files. - -MORE ABOUT THE SUPPLEMENTAL STYLES AND MACROS: - - The following styles and macros are not specifically for use - with seminar.sty, and hence are not described in detail in - the seminar.sty User's Guide. You do not need to read the - documentation of these files in order to use seminar.sty. - If you have versions on your system that are older than the - ones distributed with seminar.sty, be sure to replace these. - - FANCYBOX.STY: - fancybox.sty is a LaTeX style option with tips and tricks for LR-box - commands. The documentation, fancybox.doc, is extensive. - - 2UP.TEX: - 2up.tex/2up.sty contains macros for typesetting documents in a - two-up format. seminar.sty's \twoup command provides an interface. - 2up.doc is the documentation for 2up.tex. - - NPSFONT.STY: - npsfont.sty contains macros for defining new PostScript fonts - with the New Font Selection Scheme. The documentation is in - npsfont.sty itself. - - XCOMMENT.STY: - xcomment.sty, a LaTeX style option, permits one to typeset only - selected environments, omitting input outside these environments. - See xcomment.tex if you want to typeset the documentation. - - SLIDESEC.STY - slidesec.sty is an experimental file contains sectioning commands - for slide type documents. The documentation is in slidesec.sty - itself. - - -SEMINAR.STY AND PSTRICKS.TEX: - - pstricks.tex is a collection of PostScript macros that is compatible - with most TeX macro packages, including Plain TeX and LaTeX. Included are - macros for color, graphics, rotation, overlays, nodes and much more. - - seminar.sty, combined with the semcolor option, the PSTricks package, - and your favorite macros for including EPS files, make a complete - TeX presentation software package. - - You can probably obtain the PSTricks package from wherever you got - the Seminar package, or try - Princeton.EDU:/pub or Princeton.EDU:/pub/tvz - - You must install the PSTricks package before using the semcolor option. - - seminar.sty will work with pstricks.tex v0.92, and maybe later - versions. - - -ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: - - The author is thankful to Frank Mittelbach for his documentation system. - - Thanks to Sebastian Rahtz for bits of advice, and many users for - comments and bug reports. - -BUGS: - - Too many to list, and who knows what they are anyway. These files are all - preliminary and unstable. Not responsible for neck injuries. - - - Thanks. - -CHANGES: - - v1.0: Included sem-a4.sty file, as a way to let the default papersize - be A4 (The a4 option still works). Added \epsfslidesize to make - it easier to set the slide of eps files with epsf.sty. Fixed bug - which caused the width of second pages of a multi-page slide to - end up too small if the page only contained a quote or similar - environment with reduced margins. - - v0.93a: Fixed bugs so that slides would come out properly with the - 2-up,article and portrait options (together), and so that - slides would be positioned correctly with the portrait style - option. - - v0.93: - - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES: - - ! Use the a4 option instead of sem-a4. There is not longer a - separate file for a4. - - ! No more \fewnotes, \nonotes. Use \slideplacement instead. - - ! No more \layerstyle, \overlaystyle. - - ! Slide styles are now "left" and "bottom". - - ! No more \ifslides. Use \ifarticle\else. - - ! You must now use the semlayer option to use overlays (in addition - to the semcolor option). - - ! No "down" slide rotation (only "none", "left" and "right". - - ! portrait option is no longer a separate file. - - ! \paperwidth and \paperheight are now ordinary commands, to be set - with \renewcommand. - - ! \slidefonts is now always invoked in slide environments, and never in - the preamble. (But semhelv.sty and semlcmss.sty have changed to - reflect this.) - - ! Method for customizing the slide frames has changed. - \slideframecolor, \slideframearc, \slidefillcolor and - \slideshadowcolor are obsolete. - - ! \landscape command replaced by \printlandscape to avoid conflict with - other style files. (E.g., \def\printlandscape{\special{landscape}}). - - NEW FEATURES: - - + A slide environment can have multiple `pages'. \extraslideheight{len} - controls page cutting. See user's guide for details. - - + \centerslidestrue (default) causes the contents of partially full - slides to be vertically centered in the slide. \centerslidesfalse - causes it to be flush top. - - + New \raggedslides[len] command, for setting - whether right margin in slides is ragged or justified. Default is - \raggedslides. \raggedslides[0pt] gives justified slides. - - + \slideplacement - - + \onlynotestoo - - + \slideskip and \slideshrink for added control over interline space. - - - + New: \slideleftmargini, \slideleftmarginii, \slideleftmarginiii, - \slidelabelsep, \slideitemsep, \slidepartopsep, - \slideparskip, \slideparindent, \slidefootins, \slidefootnotesep, - \slidedisplayskips, \theslidefootnote - - + \input and \endinput now supported for the slidesonly selection. - - + New conditional: \ifportrait - - + \newslideframe - - + \leftsliderotation, \rightsliderotation. - - + New \slidetopmargin, \slidebottommargin, \slideleftmargin, - \sliderightmargin. - - + New notesonly* selection. - - + New \slidesclearpagetrue - - + New \semcm and \semin. - - + New note environment and \noxcomment command, as an alternative - to treating everything outside slide environments as notes. - - - BACKWARDS-COMPATIBLE CHANGES: - - * \maketitle now uses LaTeX's default from article.sty in notes. - - * Bug in article option with the \twoup command fixed. - - * \topmargin in sem-a4 changed from -.75in to 1in. - - * \slidefontsizes is obsolete (but still works). Use \ptsize instead. - - * Page parameters are now in a separate file sem-page.sty. sem-a4.sty - has been changed to reflect this. - - v0.92: - Mostly bug fixes, plus some extra options. The PSTricks package - is no longer distributed with seminar.sty. - - Pre v0.91: - Entirely rewritten. Too many changes to list. Note especially - that system of formats and selections has changed. - -%% END sem-read.me - - - -THIS IS A SUPPLEMENTARY READ-ME FOR V1.0e OF THE SEMINAR PACKAGE - -*********************************************************************** -**** "readme" file for the Seminar package, v1.0e, 94/09/12 **** -*********************************************************************** - -COPYRIGHT 1993, 1994 by Timothy Van Zandt, Timothy.VAN-ZANDT@insead.edu -%% -%% These files may be distributed and/or modified under the conditions of -%% the LaTeX Project Public License, either version 1.2 of this license -%% or (at your option) any later version.

The problem probably lies - with seminar.cls. You can probably continue to use the seminar - package with LaTeX2e in compatibility mode, while waiting for a bug - fix, by renaming seminar.cls to something else. - -ABOUT V1.0e: - - The V1.0e distribution is identical to v1.0 of 93/04/01, - except for a few changes so that Seminar can work with - NFSS2 and LaTeX2e: - - - semhelv.sty and semlcmss.sty have been modified to work - with NFSS2 and LaTeX2e (but they still work with NFSS). - - - seminar.cls has been added. This is a LaTeX2e document class, - derived from seminar.sty v1.0 by Sebastian Rahtz. - - If you already have have seminar.sty v1.0e, then all you need - are this read-me file plus these files from the inputs - directory: - - seminar.cls semhelv.sty semlcmss.sty - -USING SEMINAR WITH LATEX2E: - - !!! YOU MUST BE USING A LATEX2E RELEASED AFTER 19 FEBRUARY 1994 - - You can either use seminar.sty in compatibility mode: - \documentstyle{seminar} - Or use the seminar.cls document class: - \documentclass{seminar} - - Unless you are using other macros that only work in - compatibility mode, you might as well use the document class. - - You can use the following options with \documentclass{seminar}: - - article slidesonly notes notesonly notesonly* - noxcomment portrait a4 (or a4paper) semhelv semlcmss - semlayer semrot semcolor slidesec - - plus appropriate options for the article document class - (e.g., 11pt) - - NOTE: Use `a4' or `a4paper', not `sem-a4'. - - `seminar.cls' is a minimal modification of seminar.sty. The - next release will take advantage of more of LaTeX2e's special - capabilities. - - -Tim Van Zandt -August 24, 1994 |
