Exhausted

statmech.jpg

I’m pretty exhausted from the talk/discussion that I led at the MIAL today. I spent a lot of time getting the slides to look right, specially the equations. I did this by keying LaTeX equations into emacs, compiling them and importing the resulting PostScript into the Gimp. I imported them at a resolution of 500, which gave me an image of about 4000×4000 pixels (that should be enough for anyone.) From there I cut the equations and pasted them into Powerpoint. I scaled them down keeping the aspect ratio fixed.

There’s got to be a better way.

    I have never used it, but this looks like an easier way to do it: http://texpoint.necula.org/

    Thanks! I’ve never heard of texpoint before — I’ll definitely try it out.
