+\maketitle
+\begin{abstract}
+ The \texttt{prosper} class permits producing high quality slides; it
+ is also easily extendable. This documentation is meant to be a user
+ manual as well as a technical note describing how to create your own
+ styles.
+\end{abstract}
+
+\section{Using the class}
+%========================
+\LaTeX\ files using the \texttt{prosper} class may be eventually translated
+into two different formats:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item the Adobe\Registered\ \emph{PostScript}\tm\ format for printing
+ transparencies;
+\item the Adobe\Registered\ \emph{Portable Document Format} (PDF) for
+ displaying slides on computers with Acrobat\Registered\ Reader in
+ full-screen mode.
+\end{itemize}
+
+When translated into PDF files, \texttt{prosper} slides benefit from
+additional possibilities such as transition effects between slides and
+incremental display of a slide with several animation effects. The
+currently supported transitions are:
+\index{transitions!supported}%
+\begin{itemize}
+\item \code{Split}: two lines sweep across the screen revealing the
+ new slide;
+\item \code{Blinds}: multiple lines, evenly distributed across the
+ screen, appear and synchronously sweep in the same direction to
+ reveal the new slide;
+\item \code{Box}: a box sweeps from the center, revealing the new slide;
+\item \code{Wipe}: a single line sweeps across the screen from one
+ edge to the other, revealing the new slide;
+\item \code{Dissolve}: the old page image dissolves to reveal the new slide;
+\item \code{Glitter}: similar to \texttt{Dissolve}, except the
+ effect sweeps across the image in a wide band moving from one side
+ of the screen to the other;
+\item \code{Replace}: the effect is simply to replace the old page
+ with the new page.
+\end{itemize}
+
+Figure~\ref{fig:structure} presents a bird's-eye view of the structure
+of a \LaTeX\ file using the \texttt{prosper} class.
+
+
+\section{Options of the class}
+%=============================
+
+The \texttt{prosper} class supports the following options (default
+options are preceded by a black triangle $\blacktriangleright$, while
+the others are preceded by a black square $\blacksquare$):
+
+%--------------------------------------------------------------------- Figure -
+\begin{figure}[htbp]
+ \begin{center}

+ \end{center}
+\index{slide@\texttt{slide} environment}%
+\end{figure}
+%------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+\begin{description}
+\item [$\blacksquare$~\code{draft}.] The file is compiled in draft
+ mode: figures are replaced by bounding boxes; the caption at the
+ bottom of every slide displays the date and time of the compiling
+ together with the file name;
+\item [$\blacktriangleright$~\code{final}.] The file is compiled
+ in final mode: figures are inserted at their position; the caption
+ on every slide contains the text given (optionally) by the
+ user with the macro \verb$\slideCaption$, except if the
+\cindex{slideCaption}%
+ macro \verb$\displayVersion$ appears in the preamble (in that case,
+\index{displayVersion@\texttt{\textbackslash displayVersion}}%
+ the same caption as in the draft mode is used);
+\item [$\blacktriangleright$~\code{slideColor}.] Slides will
+ use many colors. To be used with caution when the slides are to be printed
+ on a black \& white device;
+\item [$\blacksquare$~\code{slideBW}.] Slides will use
+ a restricted set of colors. Should be used whenever the presentation is
+ meant to be printed in black \& white;
+\item [$\blacksquare$~\code{total}.] The caption at the bottom of
+ every slide displays the number of the current slide along with
+ the total number of slides;
+\item [$\blacktriangleright$~\code{nototal}.] Only the number of the current slide
+ appears in the caption;
+\item [$\blacksquare$~\code{nocolorBG}.] The background of the
+ slide is white whatever the style may be. It is a good idea to
+ use this option for printing slides in black \& white;
+\item [$\blacktriangleright$~\code{colorBG}.] The color of
+ the background depends on the current style;
+\item [$\blacksquare$~\code{ps}.] The \LaTeX\ file is
+ compiled to produce a PostScript\tm\ file for printing;
+\item [$\blacktriangleright$~\code{pdf}.] The \LaTeX\ file is compiled to
+ produce a PDF file for a presentation with a video projector;
+\item [$\blacksquare$~\code{accumulate}.] Macros \verb$\onlySlide$,
+\cindex{untilSlide}\cindex{fromSlide}\cindex{onlySlide}%
+ \verb$\untilSlide$ and \verb$\fromSlide$ interpret their argument in
+ \verb$ps$ mode. Note that it is possible to locally modify the option setting
+ by using macros \codeM{Accumulatetrue} and \codeM{Accumulatefalse};
+\item [$\blacktriangleright$~\code{noaccumulate}.] Macros \verb$\onlySlide$,
+ \verb$\untilSlide$ and \verb$\fromSlide$ do not interpret their argument in
+ \verb$ps$ mode;
+\item [$\blacksquare$~\code{distiller}.] The
+ PostScript\Registered\ file is to be translated into a PDF file using
+ Adobe\Registered\ Distiller;
+\item[$\blacksquare$~\code{YandY}.] The \LaTeX\ file is to be processed with
+ YandY \LaTeX;
+\item[$\blacktriangleright$~\code{ps2pdf}.] The PostScript\Registered\
+ file is to be translated into a PDF file using AFPL \code{ps2pdf};
+\item[$\blacksquare$~\code{vtex}.] The \LaTeX\ file is to be processed with MicroPress
+ Visual \TeX;
+\item [$\blacksquare$~\code{noFooter}.] Do not add any caption at the bottom
+ of the slides.
+\end{description}
+
+\section{Predefined macros and environments}
+%===========================================
+
+\subsection{Macros to appear in the preamble}
+%--------------------------------------------
+The \texttt{prosper} class (re-)defines some standard macros. Those
+given hereunder are to be put in the preamble (that is, before
+\index{preamble}%
+\verb$\begin{document}$):
+
+\begin{description}
+\item \codeM{title}. Title of the presentation;
+\item \codeM{subtitle}. Subtitle of the presentation;
+\item \codeM{author}. Author(s) of the presentation;
+\item \codeM{email}. E-mail address of the author(s);
+\item \codeM{institution}. Name of the institute/company the author(s)
+ come(s) from;
+\item \codeA{slideCaption}{\{c\}}. Caption to be put at the bottom
+ of every slide (name of the event/conference\dots).
+ The title of the presentation is used as the default caption whenever
+ the author
+ do not override it by providing his own caption by using this macro;
+\item \codeA{Logo}{(x,y)\{mylogo\}} or \codeA{Logo}{\{mylogo\}}.
+ The logo given by \verb$mylogo$ will be put at the position \verb$(x,y)$
+ on each slide (resp.\ at a default position defined by each slide style).
+ The reference point is bottom left. An example of use is: \\
+ \verb$\Logo(2,5){\includegraphics[width=1cm]{irinLOGO.eps}}$)
+\item \codeM{displayVersion}. Displays a draft caption (with
+ the name of the file, the title of the presentation, the name of the
+ author(s), and the date/time of the last \LaTeX\ compiling) instead
+ of the caption defined by the user even when in final mode;
+\item \codeA{DefaultTransition}{\{trans\}}: definition of the default
+ transition mode between slides. By default, the \texttt{Replace} mode is
+\index{transition!default}%
+ used;
+\item \codeA{NoFrenchBabelItemize}. To be used when loading the babel
+ style with the ``french'' option in order to have the ability to choose
+ ones own items. The french itemize glue is preserved;
+\item \codeA{collapsedBookmarksfalse}. Since v. 2.0, all overlays have
+ a bookmark. If you call this macro in the preamble, the tree of bookmarks
+ is expanded, otherwise it is collapsed and only the bookmarks for the
+ first slide of each overlay are visible.
+\end{description}
+
+\subsection{The \texttt{slide} environment}
+%------------------------------------------
+Figure~\ref{fig:structure} describes the \texttt{slide} environment. An
+optional argument is the transition effect for displaying the slide.
+The default transition is \texttt{R} (Replace).
+
+\subsection{Some \texttt{itemize} environments}
+%----------------------------------------------
+The \texttt{Itemize} environment corresponds to the \LaTeX\
+\index{Itemize@\texttt{Itemize} environment}%
+\texttt{itemize} environment where the text is justified. In
+\index{itemize@\texttt{itemize} environment}%
+\texttt{prosper}, the \texttt{itemize} environment has been redefined
+such that text is not justified in it (a better choice for slides).
+
+There also exists an \texttt{itemstep} environment where each item is displayed
+\index{itemstep@\texttt{itemstep} environment}%
+incrementally (in PDF mode). This environment only offers a facility
+to add overlays and is quite limited in use. In particular, no nesting
+of \texttt{itemstep} environment is allowed. It accepts an optional argument
+corresponding to the overlay level to start from.
+
+\subsection{Macros to be used out of any \texttt{slide} environment}
+%-------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+\begin{description}
+\item \codeA{part}{[transition]\{xx\}}. Creates a slide only containing the
+ text \texttt{xx} vertically and horizontally centered in the
+ font title. The transition \texttt{transition}---if given---will be used
+ for this slide.
+\end{description}
+
+\subsection{Macros that may appear in a \texttt{slide} environment}
+%------------------------------------------------------------------
+\begin{description}
+\item \codeA{FontTitle}{\{C\}\{BW\}}. Use this macro to change the
+ font/color to be used for slide titles. The first argument is for
+ color slides, the second for black and white ones;
+\item \codeA{FontText}{\{C\}\{BW\}}. Use this macro to change the
+ font/color to be used for slide text. The first argument is for
+ color slides, the second for black and white ones;
+\item \codeA{fontTitle}{\{xx\}}. Writes its argument using the
+ title font and color;
+\item \codeA{fontText}{\{xx\}}. Writes its argument using the
+ text font and color;
+\item \codeA{ColorFoot}{\{col\}}. The footer is to be written with color
+ \texttt{col};
+\item \codeA{PDFtransition}{\{tr\}}. Uses \texttt{tr} as the transition
+ effect from the previous slide to the current slide;
+\item \codeA{myitem}{\{lvl\}\{def\}}. Defines the item of level
+ \verb$lvl$ (where \verb$lvl$ may be 1, 2 or 3) to be \verb$def$. By
+ default, it is a green lozenge for all levels. The following code
+ define the items to be 3D bullets of different size and color (the
+ corresponding PostScript\tm\ files are provided in the \texttt{img/}
+ directory of the \texttt{prosper} distribution):
+{\footnotesize
+\begin{verbatim}
+\myitem{1}{\includegraphics[width=.4cm]{red-bullet-on-blue.ps}}
+\myitem{2}{\includegraphics[width=.3cm]{green-bullet-on-blue.ps}}
+\myitem{3}{\includegraphics[width=.3cm]{yellow-bullet-on-blue.ps}}
+\end{verbatim}
+}
+\end{description}
+
+\subsection{Overlays}
+%--------------------
+
+Overlays add animated effects to slides in PDF mode. They may be used
+to display a slide incrementally (in several steps), for making appear and
+disappear some elements on a slide\dots\ To use overlays, one has to embed
+the corresponding \texttt{slide} environment into an \codeM{overlays} macro
+as follows:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+\overlays{n}{
+\begin{slide}{...}
+...
+\end{slide}}
+\end{verbatim}
+
+The first argument (\verb$n$) of the \texttt{overlays} macro stands
+for the number of steps composing the animation.
+
+The following macros may be used to control what should appear on each
+slide composing a \verb$n$ slides overlay:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item \codeA{fromSlide}{\{p\}\{mat\}}. Puts \verb$mat$ on slides
+ \verb$p$ through \verb$n$;
+\item \codeA{onlySlide}{\{p\}\{mat\}}. Puts \verb$mat$ on slide \verb$p$
+ only;
+\item \codeA{untilSlide}{\{p\}\{mat\}}. Puts \verb$mat$ on slides
+ \verb$1$ through \verb$p$;
+\item \codeA{FromSlide}{\{p\}}. All the material after the occurrence
+ of the macro will be put on slides \verb$p$ through \verb$n$;
+\item \codeA{OnlySlide}{\{p\}}. All the material after the occurrence
+ of the macro will be put on slide \verb$p$ only;
+\item \codeA{UntilSlide}{\{p\}}. All the material after the
+ occurrence of the macro will be put on slides \verb$1$ through
+ \verb$p$.
+\end{itemize}
+
+All those macros are only really meaningful in \verb$pdf$ mode; in
+\verb$ps$ mode, they do nothing or interpret their argument, depending
+on the option \verb$no/accumulate$. Macros \verb$\fromSlide$,
+\verb$\onlySlide$, and \verb$\untilSlide$ accept stared versions which
+\index{fromSlide@\texttt{\textbackslash fromSlide}!stared}%
+\index{onlySlide@\texttt{\textbackslash onlySlide}!stared}%
+\index{untilSlide@\texttt{\textbackslash untilSlide}!stared}%
+typeset the \verb$mat$ material in a zero dimension box (i.e.\ the
+position pointer is not moved). The stared versions should be used for
+replacement purposes. For example, the piece of code:
+\begin{verbatim}
+\onlySlide*{1}{\includegraphics{example-1.eps}}%
+\onlySlide*{2}{\includegraphics{example-2.eps}}%
+\onlySlide*{3}{\includegraphics{example-3.eps}}%
+\end{verbatim}
+would put image \verb$example-1.eps$ on the first slide; this image
+would then be replaced by \verb$example-2.eps$ on the second slide,
+and by \verb$example-3.eps$ on the third slide. Note the \verb$%$
+comment sign at the end of each line: it prevents \LaTeX\ from inserting
+some space---due to the carriage return---which would induce a slight
+displacement between each image on the slides.
+
+\medskip
+\noindent\textbf{Important note}: keep in mind that
+\verb$\FromSlide$,
+\verb$\OnlySlide$, \verb$\UntilSlide$, and the un-stared versions of
+\verb$\fromSlide$, \verb$\onlySlide$, and \verb$\untilSlide$ interpret
+the argument \verb$mat$ \emph{for each slide composing the overlay}
+even if it is not displayed (this is mandatory in order to know the size of the
+box that needs be reserved for the un-displayed material).
+
+The following macros permit choosing the material to put on a slide depending
+on the chosen mode (ps or pdf):
+\begin{itemize}
+\item \codeA{PDForPS}{\{ifpdf\}\{ifps\}}. Interprets material \verb$ifpdf$
+ if the chosen mode is \verb$pdf$, otherwise interprets \verb$ifps$;
+\item \codeA{onlyInPS}{\{mat\}}. Interprets material \verb$mat$ only if
+ the mode is \verb$ps$;
+\item \codeA{onlyInPDF}{\{mat\}}. Interprets material \verb$mat$ only if
+ the mode is \verb$pdf$.
+\end{itemize}
+
+These macros may be used as follows:
+\begin{verbatim}
+\overlays{3}{%
+\begin{slide}{Example}
+\onlySlide*{1}{\includegraphics{example-1.eps}}%
+\onlySlide*{2}{\includegraphics{example-2.eps}}%
+\onlySlide*{3}{\includegraphics{example-3.eps}}%
+\onlyInPS{\includegraphics{example.eps}}%
+\end{slide}}
+\end{verbatim}
+This slide will be displayed in three steps with three different
+figures in \verb$pdf$ mode; in \verb$ps$ mode, there will be only one
+slide containing figure \verb$example.eps$.
+
+\section{Warning}\label{sec:avertissement}
+%=================
+
+The \texttt{prosper} slide styles are not bound to provide the same
+display area. Consequently, using different styles may require some
+\index{slide!display area}%
+adjustment in the text and graphics positioning.
+
+\section{The Compilation Process}
+%================================
+
+The compilation process slightly differs depending on the intended use of
+the slides. It is sketched in Fig.~\ref{fig:compilation}. If you plan
+to print slides on transparencies, you should select the \verb$ps$
+option and create a PostScript\tm\ file, while if you want to display them
+with a computer and an overhead projector, you should select the
+\verb$pdf$ option and create a PDF file from the PostScript\tm\ file.
+Translation of a PostScript\tm\ file into a PDF file is done by the
+program \texttt{ps2pdf} included in the GhostScript distribution.
+
+%--------------------------------------------------------------------- FIGURE -
+\begin{figure}[htbp]
+ \begin{center}
+ \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{compilation.eps}
+ \caption{Compilation process}
+ \label{fig:compilation}
+ \end{center}
+\end{figure}
+%------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+\noindent\textbf{Important note}: PDF file should be made resolution
+independent by using vectorial fonts only (no \TeX\ bitmap fonts). To
+do so, you have to use a GhostScript version at least equal to 6.0.
+You also need to create a \verb$.dvipsrc$ file in your home directory
+with the following lines:
+\begin{verbatim}
+p +psfonts.cmz
+p +psfonts.amz
+\end{verbatim}
+Last, \texttt{prosper} styles have been devised to be used with A4 European
+paper format. Consequently, you will have to instruct GhostScript to
+use the appropriate format by defining the \code{GS\_OPTIONS}
+environment variable to \verb$"-sPAPERSIZE=a4"$. If you use bash as
+\cindex{PAPERSIZE}%
+your main shell, this is done by adding the line
+\begin{verbatim}
+export GS_OPTIONS="-sPAPERSIZE=a4"
+\end{verbatim}
+in your \verb$.bash_profile$ file.
+
+You will need Adobe\Registered\ Acrobat\Registered\ Reader
+(\texttt{acroread}) to display PDF files. It is available for free on
+the Adobe\Registered\ \href{http://www.adobe.com/}{web site}.
+Acrobat\Registered\ Reader provides a full-screen mode that is
+particularly handy for presentations.
+
+\section{Devising new slide styles}
+%===================================
+
+Devising new \texttt{prosper} styles is an easy task provided you know
+the basics of Van Zandt's \texttt{PSTricks} package (refer to
+\emph{PSTricks: PostScript\tm\ macros for Generic \TeX}, User's Guide,
+Timothy Van Zandt). In order to devise your own style named
+\texttt{foo}, you first have to create a file
+\texttt{PPR\textbf{foo}.sty} which will contain its definition. Refer
+to predefined styles for some examples and to
+Section~\ref{sec:definition-example}.
+
+\noindent\textbf{A word of caution:} you are free to create a new
+style by modifying an existing one. In that case, \textbf{it is
+ MANDATORY} renaming your file; do NEVER EVER modify a style without
+renaming it (is that clear enough?). You should also write your name
+and email address in any of your styles such that users know who to
+get in touch with when they use the style. Please choose a name for
+your style that is unique in the \texttt{prosper} distribution (with
+respect to both predefined and contributed styles so far).
+
+\medskip Please send slide styles you are proud of. I will add them to
+the distribution in the \texttt{contrib/} directory. Note that I will
+only consider for addition styles that are indeed original. Modifying
+the colors or the fonts of an existing one is definitely not
+sufficient since this can be done by users in their \LaTeX\ file by using
+the provided hooks for customization.
+
+\subsection{Predefined tests}
+%-----------------------------
+The following tests may be used in your style file in order to modify
+its behaviour according to the active options. The general scheme is:
+\begin{verbatim}
+ \ifxxxx%
+ % The ``then'' part
+ \else%
+ % The ``else'' part
+ \fi
+\end{verbatim}
+
+\begin{description}
+\item \codeM{ifDVItoPS}. True when the DVI file will be eventually
+ translated into a PostScript\tm\ file, false when the final target is
+ the PDF format;
+\item \codeM{ifisDraft}. True when the file is compiled in draft mode;
+\item \codeM{ifinColor}. True when the option \texttt{slideColor}
+ has been chosen;
+\item \codeM{ifallPages}. True when the option \texttt{total} has
+ been chosen;
+\item \codeM{ifcolorBG}. True when the option \texttt{colorBG} has
+ been chosen;
+\item \codeM{ifshowVersion}. True whenever the macro
+ \verb$\displayVersion$ appears in the preamble;
+\item \codeM{ifInOverlays}. True if the current \texttt{slide}
+ environment is embedded into an \texttt{overlays} macro.
+\end{description}
+
+\subsection{Macros to customize or create a style}
+%-------------------------------------------------
+\begin{description}
+\item \codeA{slideCaption}{\{cap\}}. Definition of a caption
+ to appear on every slide;
+\item \codeA{PDFCroppingBox}{\{lx ly ux uy\}}. Definition of a
+ PostScript\tm\ \emph{bounding box} to crop slides for enhancing
+\index{bounding box}%
+ their appearance on $4/3$ devices such as monitors (only used in PDF
+ mode);
+\item \codeA{NewSlideStyle}{[width]\{anchor\}\{pos\}\{defin\}}.
+ Defines a new slide style whose definition is given by the macro
+ \verb$\defin$ and whose contents area has width \verb$width$ and is
+ put at position \verb$(pos)$ with anchor \verb$anchor$. If no width
+ is given, a default width of 11\,cm is used;
+\item \codeA{LogoPosition}{\{pos\}}. Default position for a logo if none
+ is given by the user;
+\item \codeM{PutLogo}. A macro to be put at the end of the macro
+ that defines your own style.
+\end{description}
+
+\subsection{Lengths}
+%-------------------
+
+\begin{description}
+\item \codeM{slideWidth}. Defines the width of the text area in the slide.
+ Should not be modified by the user. Corresponds to the first argument of
+ macro \code{NewSlideStyle}.
+\end{description}
+

+\end{center}
+
+You will find there additional information, CVS tarballs, news, up to
+date distributions of Prosper\dots\ If you plan using Prosper on a
+regular basis, you should consider subscribing to the lists
+\texttt{prosper-users} and \texttt{prosper-announce}. Directions to

+\section{Troubleshootings}
+%=========================
+
+If you experience some problem when installing or using Prosper,
+please go first to the Prosper homepage to check whether there is some
+hint on how to solve it in one of the list archives. If you do not
+find any answer to your problem, send a mail to the
+\texttt{prosper-users} list.
+
+Mails asking for help sent directly to the authors will \emph{not} be
+taken into consideration.
+
+There is also a file \texttt{TROUBLESHOOTINGS} in the distribution listing
+solutions to commonly encountered problems.
