How to use LaTeX tables with MS Word/PowerPoint Thanks, all. Good points about the resolution/size problems with the pdf solution. I'm sure that leads to unpredictable results. I learned that if you save tables to .rtf (Stata can) or .xlsx, then you end up with a good-enough solution. You can link to the file (link in question) and when you reopen the PowerPoint/Word file the links update, which is good-enough if you can't avoid PowerPoint/Word. |

How to use LaTeX tables with MS Word/PowerPoint Thanks. So maybe the best solution in this case is to generate one exactly cropped pdf per table? I'll have to see if I can do that programmatically. In any case that may be easier than converting some people. :-) thanks. |

Generate .tex output from .bib file to cut and paste Ah, OK. I think this is much better. :) They should be OK with this approach. Thanks! I will close as a duplicate. |

Converted EPS not found with TeX Live 2012 and Windows 8 Thanks! This does it, too. |

Converted EPS not found with TeX Live 2012 and Windows 8 Thanks! FWIW, I added the dEPSCrop option so that ps2pdf doesn't embed in the eps file in a full page pdf file. That is, I run ps2pdf -dEPSCrop gz_figure_1.esp. |

Converted EPS not found with TeX Live 2012 and Windows 8 @DavidCarlisle -- Wow. That does it. The file must be in the same directory with epstopdf? I tried full paths, but I guess it has to be same directory. Thanks! |

Can I use natbib in beamer, but omit the bibliography? Wow. Thanks! I still haven't made the switch to biblatex (and likely won't) so this is handy. |

Tips and tricks to tightly couple LaTeX paper and Beamer presentation @MikeRenfro -- Ah, thanks for the link to the workflow section! I will give this a try (but AndrewStacey has a very good point about my attempts to shave 15 minutes at the cost of boring an audience to death). Please post as an answer and I'll accept. |

Tips and tricks to tightly couple LaTeX paper and Beamer presentation @AndrewStacey -- Thanks for the grounding! Good point. The clean slate approach has serious advantages over trying to save 15 minutes here and there. Thanks! |

Tips and tricks to tightly couple LaTeX paper and Beamer presentation Maybe the laziest/lamest example would be keeping the section titles and organization the same. Or keeping the same tables and graphs in both files. |

Tips and tricks to tightly couple LaTeX paper and Beamer presentation @MikeRenfro -- Yes (although I didn't know about beamerarticle, which will come in handy elsewhere, I'm sure). I am just looking for any tips/tricks/packages on making the presentation match the paper. There may not be any other than starting the beamer file from a relatively finished version of the paper then updating the presentation as the paper evolves. |

Cite in body of document, but omit from references (i.e., opposite of \nocite) Where can I find bibentry? I can't find it in the TexLive package manager on a Win 7 install. Thanks! |

Cite in body of document, but omit from references (i.e., opposite of \nocite) @Werner -- No, bibtex. In the near term I won't have the time/energy to switch, but should I add that to my todo list? Other than this odd request I have been very happy with the bibtex feature set. |

Cite in body of document, but omit from references (i.e., opposite of \nocite) @Mico -- Brilliant! I wanted to have one reference for the subject paper (I am a PhD student writing paper summaries for a seminar), but I can leave that off. Your solution is much more practical and lets me get full citations later. Thanks! Should I close this question? |

Get combine a `sidewaystable` with a `subfloat` from `subfig` @anon -- Thanks. I didn't know that I could wrap multiple tabulars in one sidewaystable. Is there a good book on LaTeX? I learn most of this stuff in a vacuum, but the other programs I use (R, Stata) have consoles and help commands. Thanks! |
