I've been using minipage for text and images in Beamer successfully. But I just came to writing notes to go with the presentation as an article and found that the same code didn't work.
I'm trying to put a table on the left hand side of the page and itemized text on the right.
The text keeps ending up below the table though. Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong?
Thanks...
