Producing Slides and Presentations with LaTeX

• Using basic slides and foils
• More advanced options to create a PDF file with many powerpoint like features and effects:
  • Prosper
  • Beamer (and here is a beamer presentation about how to make a beamer presentation)

The files below are an example output (the pdf file) and then a latex template (using the beamer class) and associated beamer style and image files to create a presentation with departmental and university branding/styling. Note the images used by the template are png files so you will need to use pdflatex to compile your document (and use pdf/jpeg/png images for figures). There are 2 backgrounds for the title page, the style will use the standard one for 4x3 aspect ratio slides and switch to the wide one for 16x9 slides (suitable for most modern FullHD wide format projectors).

For convenience these files are also available as a Zip file, which is then also an easy way to create a 'new project' in Overleaf using the template.
