Hi, I'm trying to make some (mkiv) handouts from my simpleslides presentation. Unfortunately the resulting pdf is blank for the slides, no frames either. Can someone give me an example that works? Here's my minimal: % slides.tex \usemodule[simpleslides][style=BigNumber,font=Helvetica] \setupTitle [title={Title}, author={Author}, date={\currentdate}] \starttext \placeTitle \SlideTitle{Title2} content \SlideTitle{Title3} content \stoptext % handout.tex \setuppapersize [A4][A4] % or [A4,landscape][A4,landscape] \setuplayout [header=0pt,footer=1cm,backspace=1cm,topspace=1cm,width=middle,height=middle] \setupfootertexts [presentation---\currentdate\space---\space\pagenumber] \starttext \combinepages[slides][nx=2,ny=3,frame=on] \stoptext I also tried it with the standard presentation examples and using .tex and .pdf suffixes for the combinepages command.

I'm trying to make some (mkiv) handouts from my simpleslides presentation. Unfortunately the resulting pdf is blank for the slides, no frames either. Can someone give me an example that works?
So I just ran tested it with mkii, and there it works. Is there any mkiv way for doing a handout? Adam
Hi Adam, I tested your code both with mkii and mkiv, and everything seems to work correctly, both with frame= on or off. As a matter of fact, I learned from the piece of your code \setuppapersize [A4][A4] % or [A4,landscape][A4,landscape] \setuplayout [header=0pt,footer=1cm,backspace=1cm,topspace=1cm,width=middle,height=middle] \setupfootertexts [presentation---\currentdate\space---\space\pagenumber] \starttext \combinepages[slides][nx=2,ny=3,frame=on] % or % \combinepages[slides.pdf][nx=2,ny=3,frame=on] \stoptext that independently of the SimpleSlides module one can combine any PDF file in a handout… Thanks very much! I added on the wiki a page for this: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/handout Best regards: OK On 1 mai 2011, at 22:45, Reviczky, Adam wrote:

Was already present at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Presentations#Post_Processing_Presentation I think that the new page can be deleted. Do you agree? Aditya

Dear Aditya, I am sorry for having overlooked that page: indeed the page http://wiki.contextgarden.net/handout is just a repetition of http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Presentations#Post_Processing_Presentation and as such can be deleted, as you suggest. However, I couldn't find a way to delete the page about « handout ». Also, when searching the word « handout » on the wiki, I didn't find anythind and that's why I added the page about it. Best regards: OK
