Subject: PDF presentation using Prosper
I'm creating a presentation in Lyx using the Prosper package and Dekel
Tsur's layout file. Most of this is working perfectly, except for one
strange problem. In the resulting pdf file, some pages are rotated 90
degrees (displayed portrait instead of landscape), which is obviously
not very useful for an on-screen presentation. But I can't seem to find
a clear reason why this happens. It has something to do with EPS
figures, but that's as much logic as I can find in this. I did check the
postscript file, but the orientation is the same for all pages in there.
Is this a known problem and can it be fixed?
Edwin
Don't know, what happens if you rotate eps figs in the faulty slides ?
Where do the eps come from ?
By the way, I have this layout here:
# \DeclareLaTeXClass[prosper2]{slides (prosper)}
# By Dekel Tsur [EMAIL PROTECTED]
which relies on this class:
\def\Prosper@Version{2.0}
\NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e}[1995/12/01]
\ProvidesClass{prosper}[2001/01/23, v. \Prosper@Version]
\typeout{(c) 2000 Frederic Goualard, CWI, The Netherlands}
\typeout{CVSId: $Id: prosper.cls,v 1.7 2001/03/08 09:09:53 exupery Exp $}
Is it the last update of the class and layout ?

It's not the figure that is rotated. It's the entire page that is shown
rotated, the page itself is perfect.
Where do the eps come from ?
In one particular case it's an xfig figure processed by psfrag. When I
turn off the psfrag scan, the page shows up normal. However, it happens
to clean eps figures too.
I have a very small screenshot here to clarify the problem:

That's the one I have, it came with the cluster example. Since the
original prosper seems to be at 1.0.4, I assume this has some custom
modifications.
