In the following, a style option for the article style will be presented which makes it easy to produce slides. It does not support an overlay structure as , but it enables the user to change an article to a sequence of slides by simply copying and rearranging. Therefore, it is merely an option for the article style and not a new style.
The design of this option fits into the philosophy of LATEX: The logical structure of a text is created by the user and not the details how to put this into a nice output.
The style option described here supports a standard layout which is nevertheless easy to change if necessary. The user is able to think in ``normal'' dimensions and font sizes as the proper magnification of the slide is done by the output device.
