Re: import pdfs + page size

thanks again, everything worked. I guess latex isn't that bad, but it can be a torture to get there. I don't know if I'll have to use it again, but I'll keep an eye on it.

in the end I was compiling the file on both xp and ubuntu on the same computer, and actually both outputs were the same (of ...

Re: import pdfs + page size

thanks a lot, that looks really good, it's exactly that what I needed. only one question (the last, I promise): is it possible for the includegraphics command to take a page from a document, instead of using a whole document? I ask that because there are 9 pdfs for the whole score (150 pages): one ...

Re: import pdfs + page size

"Well, you said litterally "with margins of 0 L+R, and 7mm U+D" and that's what the settings of the geometry package does: 0mm on left and right and 7mm up and down. Perhaps I misunderstood something. Anyway, you can fix the margins by varying the values of hmargin and vmargin."

Re: import pdfs + page size

Hi,

thanks for your reply. I didn't install TeXnicCenter, but instead compiled with pdflatex. Is that the same? About the different plattforms, I really did the same on all: opened the document, and texed it. I'll do it again with pdflatex, and see what happens.

import pdfs + page size

Hi,

I'm trying to import a pdf into a document, but it isn't working. I'm following Talbot's tutorial http://theoval.cmp.uea.ac.uk/~nlct/latex/novices/, but when I replaced the ps file for a pdf, it stopped being included.

Help for a beginner

I'm a beginner, and have no experience whatsoever with latex. I wanted to create a musical score, comprised of a mixture of several files to import. That is:

- the document is 150 pages long, page size is 297 x 466 mm (portrait)
- the contents of each page are *only* either 3 or 6 pictures ...
