Czechoslovak TeX Masaryk University Brno
Users Group CSTUG & Faculty of Informatics
invite you to the tutorial
Advanced Interactive Documents
given by
Hans Hagen
Abstract: Although some 20 years old, TeX can still
do a pretty good job when it comes to producing
advanced documents. For instance, TeX is one of
the few programs that can produce sophisticated
PDF. Both worlds meet in pdfTeX, a program that
is developed in the Czech republic.
Ever since PDF came around, we have been designing
interactive document using TeX and especially pdfTeX.
In this presentation I will therefore circle around
the following topics:
-- the pros and cons of PDF as information carrier
-- why and when (not) to use TeX
-- some characteristics of interactive documents
-- how documents can become programs
-- designing intelligent documents (using JavaScript)
-- the importance of structure and flexible coding
-- how to make those documents yourself
During the presentation, I will introduce the tools
that we use to produce these documents. The main
objective of this presentation is to demonstrate
that TeX users can operate at the frontiers of document
production.
Tutorial will be given at Faculty of Informatics,
Masaryk University, Brno, Czech Republic,
Botanicka 68a, on Monday December 13th, 1999,
4:00 PM in multimedia auditorium D1. It may last up to
four hours (with coffee breaks).
Please, register with secretary@cstug.cz to attend.
Hans Hagen is current NTS project leader. He is a
director of PRAGMA, Advanced Document Processing.
