Video presentations with Beamer

Beamer is an advanced package for video presentations. Here is the original documentation.

The deisgn of the presentation is controlled by themes. Apart from the default themes, there are a couple made especially for Automatic Control, LTH.

• beamerthemelioncorner

• beamerthemelionheader

• beamerthemelionbackground

To create the paper usually handed out before a presentation, use the command

• eightbeamer basename.

  • A file with the name basenameeight.pdf with eight images per page will be generated. Note that the command uses the .tex-file and not .ps or .pdf

The beginning of the LaTeX-document that generated the examples:

\documentclass[mathserif,professionalfont]{beamer}
\usepackage{schoolbook}

%\usepackage{beamerthemelioncorner}
%\usepackage{beamerthemelionheader}
\usepackage{beamerthemelionbackground}

\usepackage{graphicx,psfrag}
