Introduction

You can use all wiki markup for making your slides - just keep the following in mind:

• for a DiaShow, a bigger font will be used, so don't put too much on a slide or you will have to scroll

• if you use colours, keep contrast in mind - especially if you want to make a printout.
• presentation will look different on the beamer and on paper as on your screen.
• if you use graphics, use thicker line width or they will be hardly visible.

Creating the slides

Put a headline on top of your page (as you see above) because in DiaShow mode, the wiki page title won't be visible (as the whole wiki frame stuff won't be visible, only the page contents).

If you do not want to enumerate your headlines, use #pragma section-numbers off at top of your page.

Don't forget to fill in some valuable content.

For your convenience, there is a SlideTemplate - use it.

Put <<Navigation(slides)>> (upper) or <<Navigation(siblings)>> (lower) at bottom of your page:

Running your presentation

Well, it is easy: just visit the main page (like HelpOnSlideShows) of your presentation and hit Start.

You can use Diaschau and Wiki on the main page to toggle between:

• Wiki mode (small fonts) and

• DiaShow mode (large fonts for beamer presentation, uses a different CSS).
