Using LaTeX for Presentations: Beamer and Beyond

LaTeX isn't just for papers — Beamer is the standard for academic presentations with mathematical content.

Getting Started with Beamer

Beamer documents start with \\documentclass{beamer}. Each slide is a frame environment. Math notation works exactly as in regular LaTeX.

Including Math Formulas

All our editor's formulas can be directly copied into Beamer. The KaTeX preview closely matches how formulas will look in your presentation.

Tips for Great Slides

• Use \\pause for stepwise reveals
• Use our PNG export for figures in other presentation tools
• Keep formulas large and readable — your audience will thank you
