\subsection{Compatibility with Other Packages and Classes}
When using certain packages or classes together with the |beamer|
class, extra options or precautions may be necessary.
\begin{package}{{AlDraTex}}
Graphics created using AlDraTex must be treated like verbatim
text. The reason is that DraTex fiddles with catcodes and spaces
much like verbatim does. So, in order to insert a picture, either
add the |fragile| option to the frame or use the
|\defverbatim| command to create a box containing the picture.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{alltt}}
Text in an |alltt| environment must be treated like verbatim
text. So add the |fragile| option to frames containing this
environment or use |\defverbatim|.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{amsthm}}
This package is automatically loaded since \beamer\ uses it for
typesetting theorems. If you do not wish it to be loaded, which can
be necessary especially in |article| mode if the package is
incompatible with the document class, you can use the class option
|noamsthm| to suppress its loading. See
Section~\ref{section-theorems} for more details.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{babel}|[|\declare{|french|}|]|}
When using the |french| style, certain features that clash with the
functionality of the \beamer\ class will be turned off. For example,
enumerations are still produced the way the theme dictates, not the
way the |french| style does.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{babel}|[|\declare{|spanish|}|]|}
\beamernote
When using the |spanish| style, certain features that clash with the
functionality of the \beamer\ class will be turned off. In particular,
the special behaviour of the pointed brackets |<| and |>| is
deactivated.
\articlenote
To make the characters |<| and |>| active in |article| mode, pass
the option |activeospeccharacters| to the package
|beamerbasearticle|. This will lead to
problems with overlay specifications.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{color}}
\beamernote
The |color| package is automatically loaded by |beamer.cls|. This
makes it impossible to pass options to |color| in the preamble of
your document in the normal manner. To pass a \meta{list of options}
to |color|, you can use the following class option:
\begin{classoption}{color={\normalfont\meta{list of options}}}
Causes the \meta{list of options} to be passed on to the |color|
package. If the \meta{list of options} contains more than one
option you must enclose it in curly brackets.
\end{classoption}
\articlenote
The |color| package is not loaded automatically if
|beamerarticle| is loaded with the |noxcolor| option.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{colortbl}}
\beamernote
With newer versions of |xcolor.sty|, you need to pass the option
|table| to |xcolor.sty| if you wish to use |colortbl|. See the notes
on |xcolor| below, on how to do this.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{CJK}}
\beamernote
When using the |CJK| package for using Asian fonts, you must use the
class option \declare{|CJK|}. See |beamerexample4.tex| for an
example.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{deluxetable}}
\beamernote
The caption generation facilities of |deluxetable| are
deactivated. Instead, the caption template is used.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{DraTex}}
See |AlDraTex|.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{enumerate}}
\articlenote
This package is loaded automatically in the |presentation| modes, but not
in the |article| mode. If you use its features, you have to load the
package ``by hand'' in the |article| mode.
\end{package}
\begin{class}{{foils}}
If you wish to emulate the |foils| class using \beamer, please see
Section~\ref{section-foiltex}.
\end{class}
\begin{package}{{fontenc}|[|\declare{|T1|}|]|}
Use this option only with fonts that have outline fonts available in
the T1 encoding like Times or the |lmodern| fonts. In a standard
installation the standard Computer Modern fonts (the fonts Donald
Knuth originally designed and which are used by default) are
\emph{not} available in the T1 encoding. Using this option with
them will result in very poor rendering of your presentation when
viewed with \pdf\ viewer applications like Acrobat or |xpdf|. To use
the Computer Modern fonts with the T1 encoding, use the package
|lmodern|. See also Section~\ref{section-font-encoding}.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{fourier}}
The package switches to a T1~encoding, but it does not redefine all
fonts such that outline fonts (non-bitmapped fonts) are used by
default. For example, the sans-serif text and the typewriter text
are not replaced. To use outline fonts for these, write
|\usepackage{lmodern}| \emph{before} including the |fourier|
package.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{HA-prosper}}
You cannot use this package with \beamer. However, you might try to
use the package |beamerprosper| instead, see
Section~\ref{section-prosper}.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{hyperref}}
\beamernote
The |hyperref| package is automatically loaded by |beamer.cls| and
certain options are setup. In order pass additional options to
|hyperref| or to override options, you can use the following class
option:
\begin{classoption}{hyperref={\normalfont\meta{list of options}}}
Causes the \meta{list of options} to be passed on to the |hyperref|
package.
\example |\documentclass[hyperref={bookmarks=false}]{beamer}|
\end{classoption}
Alternatively, you can also use the |\hypersetup| command.
\articlenote
In the |article| version, you must include |hyperref| manually if
you want to use it. It is not included automatically.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{inputenc}|[|\declare{|utf8|}|]|}
\beamernote
When using Unicode, you may wish to use one of the following class
options:
\begin{classoption}{ucs}
Loads the package |ucs| and passes the correct Unicode options to
|hyperref|. Also, it preloads the Unicode code pages zero and
one.
\end{classoption}
\begin{classoption}{utf8}
Same as the option |ucs|, but also sets the input encoding to
|utf8|. You could also use the option |ucs| and say
|\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}| in the preamble.
\end{classoption}
If you use a Unicode character outside the first two code pages
(which includes the Latin alphabet and the extended Latin alphabet)
in a section or subsection heading, you have to use the command
|\PreloadUnicodePage{|\meta{code page}|}| to give |ucs| a chance to
preload these code pages. You will know that a character has not
been preloaded, if you get a message like ``Please insert into
preamble.'' The code page of a character is given by the unicode
number of the character divided by 256.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{listings}}
\beamernote
Note that you must treat |lstlisting| environments exactly the same
way as you would treat |verbatim| environments. When using
|\defverbatim| that contains a colored |lstlisting|, use the
|colored| option of |\defverbatim|.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{msc}}
\beamernote
Since this packages uses |pstricks| internally, everything that
applies to pstricks also applies to |msc|.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{musixtex}}
When using MusiX\TeX\ to typeset musical scores, your document must
be compiled with |pdfelatex| or |elatex| instead of |pdflatex| or
|latex|.
Inside a |music| environment, the |\pause| is redefined to match
MusiX\TeX's definition (a rest during one quarter of a whole). You can
use the |\beamerpause| command to create overlays in this
environment.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{pdfpages}}
Commands like |\includepdf| only work \emph{outside} frames as they
produce pages ``by themselves.'' You may also wish to say
\begin{verbatim}
\setbeamercolor{background canvas}{bg=}
\end{verbatim}
when you use such a command since the background (even a white
background) will otherwise be printed over the image you try to include.
\example
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
\titlepage
\end{frame}
{
\setbeamercolor{background canvas}{bg=}
\includepdf{somepdfimages.pdf}
}
\begin{frame}
A normal frame.
\end{frame}
\end{document}
\end{verbatim}
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{\normalfont\meta{professional font package}}}
\beamernote
If you use a professional font package, \beamer's internal
redefinition of how variables are typeset may interfere with the
font package's superior way of typesetting them. In this case, you
should use the class option |professionalfont| to suppress any font
substitution. See Section~\ref{section-substition} for details.
\end{package}
\begin{class}{{prosper}}
If you wish to (partly) emulate the |prosper| class using \beamer,
please see Section~\ref{section-prosper}.
\end{class}
\begin{package}{{pstricks}}
You should add the option |xcolor=pst| to make |xcolor| aware of the
fact that you are using |pstricks|.
\end{package}
\begin{class}{{seminar}}
If you wish to emulate the |seminar| class using \beamer, please see
Section~\ref{section-seminar}.
\end{class}
\begin{package}{{texpower}}
You cannot use this package with \beamer. However, you might try to
use the package |beamertexpower| instead, see
Section~\ref{section-texpower}.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{textpos}}
\beamernote
\beamer\ automatically installs a white background behind
everything, unless you install a different background
template. Because of this, you must use the |overlay| option when
using |textpos|, so that it will place boxes \emph{before}
everything. Alternatively, you can install an empty background
template, but this may result in an incorrect display in certain
situtations with older versions of the Acrobat Reader.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{ucs}}
See |\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}|.
\end{package}
\begin{package}{{xcolor}}
\beamernote
The |xcolor| package is automatically loaded by |beamer.cls|. The
same applies as to |color|.
\begin{classoption}{xcolor={\normalfont\meta{list of options}}}
Causes the \meta{list of options} to be passed on to the |xcolor|
package.
\end{classoption}
When using \beamer\ together with the |pstricks| package, be sure to
pass the |xcolor=pst| option to \beamer\ (and hence to |xcolor|).
\articlenote
The |color| package is not loaded automatically if
|beamerarticle| is loaded with the |noxcolor| option.
\end{package}
