Do you think that a presentation in LaTeX looks better than what is produced by a WYSIWYG editor? Then start using the beamer class! Beamer is a LaTeX class which provides a lot of easy commands - tricks - libraries for producing presentations. Yes, the ones that you were used to author using Microsoft Powerpoint or similar WYSIWYG editors. I was searching the web for a proper and easy-to-follow example of the beamer class, but it took me some time, so when I finally compiled a LaTeX presentation, I thought it might be useful to make it publicly available. Therefore, the attached documents are only good for beginners!

If you are using MiKTeX in WinEdt, my source code should be considered as plug and play! There is no need to download the beamer class, WinEdt will do it for you automatically (at the compilation time). My sense is that in any modern LaTeX setup scenario the .tex LateX source code for the presentation should compile OK.

All the files (a .tex file and 2 figures) are included in this archive:
-- Presentation using beamer class in LaTeX

The final outcome is the pdf file:
-- LaTeX presentation pdf

Those files are a very good starting point (template). There is always a lot of information available online about everything. You can do magic, if you want to do more!
