punch_card_don has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Mosaic Monks, Always looking for better ways to generate PowerPoint slides on a server, I've seen a reference to an article that appeared in "Linux Journal" entitled

"Building Impress and PowerPoint Slides with LaTeX and Perl"

but I can't actually find the article.

Might anyone have either experience with this or an electronic copy of the article?

Thanks.

    Ah! I hadn't realized it was such a new article. OK, I'll have to figure it out for myself.

    Thanks.
