I have used seminar.sty and converted the output using ps2pdf. The only caveat I would suggest is to make sure you use a common font like times if you are not 100% sure of the presentation computer.
After preparing my slides and converting them to PDF, I got them looking nice on Linux and MacOSX, then drove over to Mum's place to make sure it worked on Windows. Mike used Prosper. It looked very good as a PDF on Linux and MacOSX but failed completely on Windows until he changed the font to something boring like times. In our case, we had to produce something that worked on different operating systems. If you have the luxury of presenting using your own PC then anything that you can see on the screen will be OK. The only problems you might have are low resolution projectors, and things that look purple on the screen might look blue on the projector. Regards, Jill. -- Jill Rowling, System Administrator Eng.

I have had a look at Michael Wiedmann's page that lists a lot of solutions: http://www.miwie.org/presentations/presentations.html Has anybody had any experiences, good or bad, with any particular solution? Other people at this thing will be using Powerpoint, so I would like to look as good as they do.
