I had the idea to write this module when I was preparing my own -presentations with \CONTEXT. I wanted to be able to achieve visually -different results without changing my source files, so I wrote different -styles that followed the same logic and provided the same macros. When I -created this module, I had the following requirements in mind: - -\startitemize -\item Most of the styles that are provided are rather sober in - appearance. I use them for my university lectures in the humanities. They - provide a nice but not too distracting background and a lot of space for - presentations with large amounts of text. -\item The module is meant for presentations which will be shown with the - help of a digital projector. Hence, they have no interactive elements - (such as buttons) and no tools for navigation (such as a table of - contents). -\item The module allows for user configurability. It comes with several - predefined styles and some predefined font options. The modular structure - makes it easy to add further styles. -\item Picture placement and changing backgrounds is made easy by predefined - macros. -\stopitemize - -The module provides a simple, basic structure; I think it will be best suited -for beginners or intermediate users of \CONTEXT. It is definitely not meant -to compete with Hans's fuller and fancier presentation modules, and it -offers much less than the \LaTeX\ {\tt beamer} package. On the other hand, -it is much easier to use; you should be able to write your first -presentation after spending five minutes with this manual. - -\section{Installation} - -Installation is easy: just put the files {\tt t-<something>} into a -directory where \TeX\ can see them. For \CONTEXT\ third|-|party modules, -the canonical place would be in one of your {\tt TEXMF} trees, under {\tt - tex/context/third}. If you want to keep things tidy, place them in a -subdirectory {\tt taspresent}. If you just unzip the archive {\tt - taspresent.zip} in a {\tt TEXMF} directory, things will be moved to the -right place automatically. On many \TeX|-|systems, you will have to run -{\tt texhash} after installing new files. To doublecheck whether the system -finds your files, run {\tt kpsewhich t-taspresent.tex} from the command -line; if all goes well, this should return the position of the file you -have just installed. - -\section{Setting up the Module} - -To use the module, you put this line into your source file: - -\startTEX -\usemodule[taspresent][style=,font=,size=,stylecolor=,stylebottom=] -\stopTEX - -The values for the different keys will be explained in the following -sections. - -\section{The {\tt style} Key} - -There are ten options for the {\tt style} key: - -\subsection{\MyStyle{blackblue}} - -This style was inspired by the \quotation{Copenhagen} theme of the \LaTeX\ -{\tt beamer} package.

If you want to develop your -own theme, I would suggest copying one of the style files to another name, -say {\tt MyStyle.tex}, and modifying it to your heart's content: you can -change the colors or define a different background altogether, think of a -different way of displaying titles, different margins, etc. Just be sure to -define all the macros that are needed. After producing your own style, -again, copy it to a place where \TeX\ can find it (such as the same -directory where the source of your presentation resides) and instruct the -module to use your file: - -\startTEX -\usemodule[taspresent][style=MyStyle,font=Times,size=17pt] -\stopTEX - -\section{The {\tt font} Key} - -There is a number of predefined fonts which can be selected by setting the -{\tt font} key. - -\starttabulate[|l|p|] -\NC {\tt LatinModern} \NC typesets in LatinModern Serif\NC \NR -\NC {\tt LatinModernSans} \NC typesets in LatinModern Sans\NC \NR -\NC {\tt Times} \NC the free clone of TimesNew Roman\NC \NR -\NC {\tt Helvetica} \NC the free clone of Helvetica\NC \NR -\NC {\tt Pagella} \NC the tex-gyre clone of Palatino; this will -only work if you have the tex-gyre fonts installed\NC \NR -\stoptabulate - -In addition, there is a value {\tt User}; this will not set a font but -allow you to provide your own settings. If you set your own font, please -remember to select the bodyfont at \typeTEX{\Normalsize} and to give your setup -commands {\em after} loading the module (or \TeX\ will not know what -\typeTEX{\Normalsize} means and complain about an \quotation{undefined control - sequence}). For example, for the samples included here, I have used my own -typescript which defines the Adobe MyriadPro font: - -\startTEX -\usetypescriptfile[type-myriadpro] -\usetypescript[MyriadPro] [texnansi] -\setupbodyfont[MyMyriadPro,ss,\Normalsize] -\stopTEX - -\section{The {\tt size} Key} - -This selects the font size for the main text and defines a corresponding -size for titles. - -\placefigure[here]{Text and title sizes} -{\setupTABLE[column][width=3cm,align=middle] -\bTABLE -\bTR \bTD Value \eTD \bTD Normalsize \eTD \bTD Titlesize \eTD \eTR -\bTR \bTD 16pt \eTD \bTD 16pt \eTD \bTD 25pt \eTD \eTR -\bTR \bTD 17pt \eTD \bTD 17pt \eTD \bTD 27pt \eTD \eTR -\bTR \bTD 18pt \eTD \bTD 18pt \eTD \bTD 28pt \eTD \eTR -\bTR \bTD 19pt \eTD \bTD 19pt \eTD \bTD 30pt \eTD \eTR -\bTR \bTD 20pt \eTD \bTD 20pt \eTD \bTD 30pt \eTD \eTR -\bTR \bTD 21pt \eTD \bTD 21pt \eTD \bTD 30pt \eTD \eTR -\eTABLE} - -\section{Macros} - -The module provides some macros to facilitate the preparation of -presentations. - -\subsection{\typeTEX{\setvariables}} - -Begin your presentation by setting the name of the author(s) and the title -with this macro: - -\startTEX - -\setvariables [taspresent] - [author={Groucho Marx}, - title={Marriage the Chief Cause of Divorce}] -\stopTEX - -\subsection{\typeTEX{\Maketitle}} - -This macro will produce a title page with the author and the title of the -presentation; the look is of course determined by the style of your -presentation. - -\placefigure[here]{A Title Page}{\externalfigure[titlepage][width=\textwidth]} - -\subsection{\typeTEX{\Slidetitle{}}} - -As the name suggests, this macro typesets its argument as the title of the -slide. What the title looks like is determined by the selected presentation -style. - -\subsection{\typeTEX{\PicHoriz}} - -This macro facilitates the placement of landscape images. It takes two -arguments: - -\startTEX -\PicHoriz[image][height=\NormalHeight] -\stopTEX - -The first argument is the name of the image you want to place; the second -argument determines the size. If your picture is not too broad, a height of -\typeTEX{\NormalHeight} will make it fill up the entire text area. If your -picture is too broad, you should set \typeTEX{width=\textwidth}. - -\placefigure[here]{Placement of a horizontal picture}{\externalfigure[horizontal][width=\textwidth]} - -\page - -\subsection{\typeTEX{\PicVert}} - -This macro facilitates the placement of portrait images. It takes three -arguments: - -\startTEX -\PicVert[image][width=\NormalWidth]{Text \\ to go \\ with the picture} -\stopTEX - -Again, the first argument is the name of the image you want to place; the -second argument determines the size. If your picture is not too high, a -width of \typeTEX{\NormalWidth} will make it fill up the entire left half -of the text area. If your picture is too hight, you should set -\typeTEX{height=\textheight}. The third argument is the text that will be -placed opposite the picture. - -\placefigure[here]{Placement of a vertical picture}{\externalfigure[vertical][width=\textwidth]} - -\page - -\subsection{\typeTEX{\CircHoriz}} - -This command works exactly like \typeTEX{\PicHoriz}, but takes an -additional (third) argument. It places a red circle on top of the picture; -the placement and size of this circle is determined by this third argument: - -\startTEX -\CircHoriz[scale=40,x=120,y=80][image][height=\NormalHeight] -\stopTEX - -The {\tt scale} key sets the diameter of the circle (in mm), {\tt x} -and {\tt y} set horizontal and vertical position. You will probably -have to fiddle with these keys to get the circle exactly where you want -it. - - -\placefigure[here]{A picture with a red circle}{\externalfigure[circle][width=\textwidth]} - -\page - -\subsection{\typeTEX{\ArrowHoriz}} - -This command works exactly like \typeTEX{\PicHoriz}, but takes an -additional (third) argument. It places a red arrow on top of the picture; -the direction and size of this arrow is determined by this third argument: - -\startTEX -\CircHoriz[direction=135,x=120,y=80][image][height=\NormalHeight] -\stopTEX - -The {\tt direction} key sets the direction into which the arrowhead points, -{\tt x} and {\tt y} set its horizontal and vertical position. You will -probably have to fiddle with these keys to get the circle exactly where you -want it. - -\placefigure[here]{A picture with a red arrow}{\externalfigure[arrow][width=\textwidth]} - -\page - -\subsection{\typeTEX{\CircVert} and \typeTEX{ArrowVert}} - -Of course, there are also circles and arrows for \quotation{vertical} -pictures; again, the first argument is the position of the circle/arrow: - -\startTEX -\CircVert[scale=22,x=23,y=25]% -[vert]% -[width=\NormalWidth]% -{Circle in \\ Vertical Mode} - -\ArrowVert[direction=90,x=7,y=23]% -[vert]% -[width=\NormalWidth]% -{Arrow in \\ Vertical Mode} -\stopTEX - -\placefigure[here]{Vertical picture with red circle}{\externalfigure[circvert][width=\textwidth]} - -\placefigure[here]{Vertical picture with red arrow}{\externalfigure[arrvert][width=\textwidth]} - -\subsection{Background} - -Some of the styles provide up to three backgrounds: for titles, for slides -with vertical image, and for normal slides with text or horizontal -images. Switching the backgrounds also adjusts parameters like margins or -headers, where this is necessary. There are three commands for setting the -background for title slides, \quotation{horizontal} slides and -\quotation{vertical} slides respectively: - -\startTEX -\titback -\lecback -\picback -\stopTEX - -\section{Handouts} - -The easiest way to make handouts from your slides is post|-|processing the -pdf|-|file of your presentation. If you want to make the handouts from the -slides such as they appear, just run this command in the directory where -your slides are located (of course, put the name of your own presentation -where you see {\tt demo.pdf} in the example; the entire command has to go -in one long line): - -{\tt texmfstart texexec --pdfcombine --combination='2*3' --nobanner - - --result=handout demo.pdf} - -This way, you will get a handout with six slides typeset in two columns per -page. - -If you prefer to have the handouts without the colored background, typeset -your presentation and leave the {\em style} key unset; that way, you will -get a default version without backgrounds and fancy frames. - -\stoptext - -%%% Local Variables: -%%% mode: context -%%% TeX-master: t -%%% End: |
