.SH MAKING SLIDES
\fBpl\fR and \fBpltab\fR may be used to create slides.
.LP
There are several strategies: 1) use \fBpl\fR or \fBpltab\fR in PostScript
mode, sending it directly to a film slide making system;
2) use \fBpl\fR or \fBpltab\fR to generate a data display then 
import it (PNG, EPS, GIF) into your slide system;
3) use \fBpl\fR or \fBpltab\fR in PNG or GIF mode and present 
graphs using a browser and a screen projection system.

, and GIF files may be imported into PowerPoint.
.LP
EPS files may be used with PowerPoint if the result will be
processed through a PostScript film imager (the EPS will not
be visible when previewing the slides on the screen, or if presenting
slides from a screen projector).

.SH BACKGROUNDS
Often light lines on a dark background works better on slides.
In the example, \fCproc page\fR is used to set a dark
background color (darkblue), and a light text/line color (white).
Also the overall line thickness is increased.
.LP
It may be convenient to use a background color of \fCtransparent\fR when
making a PNG or GIF for inclusion into a slides package.  This allows
the ploticus graph to be "overlayed" on the existing background color
of the importing application (assuming that it knows about transparency).
