-DESCRIPTION:
-
- seminar.sty is a LaTeX document style for typesetting slides or
- transparencies, and accompanying notes. 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.
-

-
-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.
-

-
- * \slidefontsizes is obsolete (but still works). Use \ptsize instead.
