Document Classes ⇒ Inserting PDF Pages into Presentation

[code401]

Hi LaTeX users,

I'm new to LaTeX and I'm creating slides in beamer and trying to include a PDF document into my slides. After searching the net, I came across this suggestion.

Code: Select all

\setbeamercolor{background canvas}{bg=}
\includepdf[pages={1-5}]{file.pdf}

But this is not inserting the PDF, rather I see a blank white page on that slide. I also tried this.

Code: Select all

\includegraphics[pages={1-5}, width=\textwidth]{file.pdf}

But this inserts only the first page of the PDF.

I want to insert all the pages in the PDF document into my presentation. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hi Tex users....

Any suggestion????

The problem is that the dimensions of a beamer frame (width=363.19536, height=273.14662pt) significantly differs from those of e.g. a page in letter paper format (width=614.295pt, height=794.96999pt). Hence pdfpages simply can't work. And I'm fairly sure that graphicx does not support the pages option for its \includegraphics command.

So, the only way to get all pages of the concerned PDF document into your presentation seems to split the document into its single pages and include those.
