General ⇒ Beamer-Package: Logo

[moo]

Hey there. I'm using the \documentclass{beamer} to make a presentation. I want to put a logo onto every page...
this works with: \logo{\pgfimage[width=2cm,height=0.52cm]{logo}}

the logo.pdf is a HQ-Logo with a size of 400kb

Now here comes the problem.... I have about 100 slides. and Latex put's the logo on every slide again and again as "new file" (dunno how to explain)... the result is that my pdf gets about 40mb of size, because the logo is loaded again an again for every slide. How can I tell latex to use this one logo on every slide?




and now another question:
is it somehow possible to exclude several slides frm the logo? like.. the logo is shown on slide 1,2,3,4, 6,7,...


thnx for your help.

Hi moo,

welcome to the board!
Try \pgfdeclareimage and \logo{\pgfuseimage{logo}}, see beamer class manual 8.2.5 The Logo.
