Thanks for your quick reply. I'm afraid I don't understand how I'd actually carry out either method you recommend. Could you please provide some more details? I chased up the pgfmanual for tikz, but at 1165 pages and with only a single hit for the string "pspicture" I decided it would be m...

I'm using the pst-asr package to include autosegmental diagrams in my linguistics thesis. However, I also want to use XeLaTeX. This is possible, however the compile process is very slow. (No problems if I compile LaTeX => PS => PDF) It takes approximatelty 10 seconds (on my current computer) to proc...

Hello, For posterity, I found the following code created a speaker symbol which dimensions that fit well into a 12pt document (with mathptmx for Times style font). \newcommand{\spk}[1]{ \begin{tikzpicture}[#1] \draw[thick,rounded corners=0.1pt, fill=black] (0,0.0909) -- (0,0.1636) -- (0.0909,0.1636)...

Is it possible to define a shortcut to reduce the length of the code I use each time I embed a file? I currently ...

Thanks, the third solution is the closest to what I want.

I'll muck around with it until it's the size I want.

Thanks again!

Thanks, this is exactly what I wanted!

Could you post the code for how I'd extend \includemediaorposter to display different poster text depending on whether or not the media is included?

I'm using the media9 package to embed MP3 files into my linguistics thesis. Is it possible with the draft option of media9 to display <poster text> rather than "a box [...] that has the dimensions of <poster text>"? A typical example from my thesis is the following, where <poster text> con...

Is there's a font or package that would allow me to input a speaker icon, or loudspeaker icon? At the moment I'm using the picture from this page with the following code to resize it. \includegraphics[height=1.55ex]{speaker.eps} But ideally I'd use an actual icon. I've made a pretty through search o...
