Building a presentation in ConTeXt is not much different than preparing an usual ConTeXt document, with some exceptions. If you're using an existing style (like ''pre-funny'' in the example above), most definitions described below are already done for you.
<texcode>\usemodule[pre-general]</texcode>The first thing you will include some [[sourceneed to do is adapt the papersize:syou need a paperlayout in landscape mode that fits a computer screen. (Actually, this layout issmaller than a screen, but a pdf-pre-00.tex|general definitions]] that you may find useful or notdocument can be scaled without losingquality.)
→Making your own presentation style
interactive screen presentations as well.
== Making your own presentation style Your First Presentation ==
=== Setting screen dimensions ===
<texcode>\setuppapersize[S6][S6]</texcode>
will set the proper document ratio (3:2) to fit the computer screen.
And you probably do not want any page numbers on your slides:
<texcode>
\setuppagenumbering[state=stop]
</texcode>
=== Setting the tolerance ===
Moreover, on slides, you want TeX to be tolerant with its horizontal space
(since you will normally be typesetting not entire paragraphs, but single lines
only, this shouldn't be a problem):
<texcode>
\setuptolerance[verytolerant,stretch]
</texcode>
=== Full-screen mode ===
See [[Animation]] (page is still under construction).
== Additional modules ==
