\"beamer\"<\/a>Have you ever confused about the option of LaTeX and PowerPoint before the presentation? In my view, most math people prefer LaTeX. Because it’s easy, fast, neat. Most important, FREE!!<\/p>\n

Whatever you are a expert in LaTeX or a rookie, I think it would not hurt to have a look at Jeromy’s post on his blog that provides a guide to getting started with Beamer, a popular LaTeX package for preparing slide presentations. This post:<\/p>\n

1) Lists some of the benefits of Beamer in comparison to PowerPoint<\/p>\n

2) Links to tutorials and suggestions for learning Beamer for both people who do and do not know LaTeX<\/p>\n

3) Documents problems that Jeromy encountered when learning to use Beamer and some solutions<\/p>\n

The full post will be found in this linkage<\/a>. Also, it would be very welcome if you could share some experience, questions or solutions with us when you use the Beamer.<\/p>\n
