I use a modified version of your slides macros for some time now and am very pleased with them. I generate PS and display with gv. I still haven't managed to cut the PDF pages in length (haven't tried much). Some sources from me are available at: http://marmaro.de/docs/chaosseminar/unix-phil/ You are probably at the same point. > But the generated HTML is rather messy, and fixing htmlroff is too much work. I can't help here because I don't generate HTML from it. btw: Do you include bitmap pictures into your slides? If so, how? I read that Heirloom troff has some features therefore, but I think they are Heirloom extensions. meillo
