Presentation and Dantelogo

Post by Roton »

Hi, I am using TexStudio and MikTex 2.9.

I am trying to use the presentation at this link:
https://www.overleaf.com/latex/template ... ysnqdxfjbc#

TexStudio seems to install lot of packages when I run the LaTex file, however it can not find the package dantelogo (https://www.ctan.org/pkg/dantelogo?lang=en).

I have tried to update my MikTex, however still not success. How can I install this manually?

I am using Windows 8.

Thanks

I think you can quite savely remove line \usepackage{dtklogos}.

Hi Roton,

welcome to the forum!

Just in case you actually would need it, the file dtklogos.sty is part of the dtk bundle, you can find it in this directory.

But I suppose Johannes' guess is already fine.

Thanks so much for your help and responses. When I updated MikTex 2.9 it seems to install the extra packages when I ran the presentation file again.

However, I am facing so many error messages with the sthlm Beamer Theme that I going back to the standard Beamer template.

Thanks again.

Thank you for the info!

Luckily, there are many standard templates to chose from. Last time, I chose a non-standard keynote template, which is white font on dark background. Nice, but depends on light situation I guess.
Finally, the content and the talk are the most important. :-)

I do agree with Stefan here. The content is morst important, the slides are just supporting you and your presentation.


btw: Stefan, post 7000 :-) Nice

Thanks all.

Yes your right the presenter and content is more important than the slides. Actually this is one of the
He reasons why I am trying to use latex more. To keep presentations simple and consise. It forces me to think more about me and less about the look of the slides. I just feeling a little behind with it all at the moment. I was looking at another template which required xelatex. When I tried to install this it brought me to texlive which is 4gb large, unfortunately too large for my current laptop. :|

You can use XeLaTeX with MikTeX just as well. ;-)
