To use pdflatex you essentially have to include
\usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}and use pdf files when including pictures. jpeg and png files are also supported.
\begin{figure}[here] \includegraphics[width=15cm,angle=90]{mypicture} \caption{Scanned example 150dpi, width=15cm,angle=90} \end{figure}Note you may leave out the suffix .jpg (mypicture.jpg), pdflatex or latex will find the suitable picture itself. This allows to treat the file by both latex (using .eps) or pdflatex (using .jpg) provided the picture exists as .eps and .jpg
Then run
pdflatex docfile
\usepackage[ppower] ... ... \pause ...This adds appropriate tags into the resulting output PDF file. This file must be treated with a postprocessor:
ppower4 name.pdf name_new.pdfThe following shell script runs pdflatex and runs ppower automatically if the latex file contains the pause instruction. In addition it runs acroread with the output file.
#!/bin/bash name=`echo $1 | cut -f 1 -d "."` echo $name pdflatex $name if [ $? -eq 0 ] then containspause=`grep '\\pause' $name.tex` if [ -n "$containspause" ] then mv $name.pdf $name_tmp.pdf ppower4 $name_tmp.pdf $name.pdf fi acroread -geometry 600x1000+10+10 $name.pdf& fi rm $name.log
