Now, imagine that part of you audience cannot attend, as your presentation is at a remote conference or you are teacher in a distance education course having students all over the world.</p> <p>There exist commercial solutions, where you can record you presentation slides along with commentary speech, but cannot you achieve the same result using free tools?</p> <p>The answer is &quot;Yes&quot;, as I will explain in this posting.</p> <span class="cut-wrapper"><span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"></span><b class="cut-open">(&nbsp;</b><b class="cut-text"><a href="https://t-fischer.dreamwidth.org/1332.html#cutid1">Read more...</a></b><b class="cut-close">&nbsp;)</b></span><div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___1" aria-live="assertive"></div><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=t_fischer&ditemid=1332" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2009-06-23:414448:841 2010-12-15T12:14:43Z 2010-12-15T12:15:08Z nerdy public 0 <p>This may be interesting for those of you who are into LaTeX and Linux: <a href="http://la-tex.dreamwidth.org/1755.html">Auto-cropping PDF files</a>.</p><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=t_fischer&ditemid=841" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
