Abstract: Making presentations or on-line documents that involve heavy mathmatics
and graphics is a non-trivial job using the commonly available software
packages. However, we can make use of pdfTEX, a variant of TEX that
will directly write to a cross platform format, namely PDF, owing to
its remarkable math handling and typesetting abilities. In this
article, we describe the generations of presentation and on-line
documents using the pdfscreen.sty package. As a corollary, we also
examine its ability to include pstricks code in a pdfTEX document
(which is not normally possible). A few examples of technical
presentations in Malayalam, a language spoken by 30 million people in
the southern state of Kerala, India, is also given, in order
to demonstrate the versatility of PDFscreen in handling Indic
scripts.
