>From the beamer manual: ┏━━━┫ 4.3.3 Ways of Improving Compilation Speed ┃ ┃ While working on your presentation, it may sometimes be useful to TeX ┃ your .tex file quickly and have the presentation contain only the most ┃ important information. This is especially true if you have a slow ┃ machine. In this case, you can do several things to speed up the ┃ compilation. First, you can use the draft class option. ┃ ┃ #+begin_src latex ┃ \documentclass[draft]{beamer} ┃ #+end_src ┃ ┃ Causes the headlines, footlines, and sidebars to be replaced by gray ┃ rectangles (their sizes are still computed, though). Many other ┃ packages, including pgf and hyperref, also “speed up” when this option ┃ is given. ┃ ┃ Second, you can use the following command: ┃ #+begin_src latex ┃ \includeonlyframes{⟨frame label list⟩} ┃ #+end_src ┃ ┃ This command behaves a little bit like the \includeonly command: Only ┃ the frames mentioned in the list are included. All other frames are ┃ suppressed. Nevertheless, the section and subsection commands are still ┃ executed, so that you still have the correct navigation bars. By ┃ labeling the current frame as, say, current and then saying ┃ \includeonlyframes{current}, you can work on a single frame quickly. ┃ ┃ The ⟨frame label list⟩ is a comma-separated list (without spaces) of the ┃ names of frames that have been labeled. To label a frame, you must pass ┃ the option label=⟨name⟩ to the \frame command or frame environment. ┃ ┃ Example: ┃ #+begin_src latex ┃ \includeonlyframes{example1,example3} ┃ \frame[label=example1] ┃ {This frame will be included. } ┃ \frame[label=example2] ┃ {This frame will not be included. } ┃ \frame{This frame will not be included.} ┃ \againframe{example1} % Will be included ┃ #+end_latex ┗━━━ -- Sent from my Emacs
