=================

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/cebe/pdfpc-latex-notes.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/cebe/pdfpc-latex-notes)

This is a LaTeX Package that allows creating [pdfpc](http://davvil.github.io/pdfpc/)

compatible notes file directly from your latex presentation `\note`s.

It was created as a result from a [question on stackoverflow](http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/119191/extract-all-note-tags-from-beamer-as-a-simple-text-file/119267#119267).

Usage

-----

Download [pdfpcnotes.sty](https://raw.github.com/cebe/pdfpc-latex-notes/master/pdfpcnotes.sty)

from github and put it somewhere where latex can find it.  

The same directory as your `.tex` file will work.

Add `\usepackage{pdfpcnotes}` somewhere before `\begin{document}` in your `.tex`-file.

You can then use the `\pnote{}` command like you used `\note{}` before.

Behavior will be the same but it will additionally write notes to file in pdfpc readable format.

When running for example `pdflatex` you will end up with an additional `.pdfpc` file that

will automatically be recognized by pdfpc and displays your notes nicely in the notes section on your control screen.

Check the [demo/](./demo/) folder for an example `.tex` file.

### Options

It is possible to give the following options for `\usepackage`:

* `duration=N`: Set the duration in minutes. See `--duration`

* `lastminutes=N`: pdfpc will warn during the last N minute. See `--last-minutes`.

* `starttime=HH:MM`: Set the start time of the presentation. See `--start-time`.

* `endtime=HH:MM`: Set the end time of the presentation. See `--end-time`.

Anything not working yet?

-------------------------

- It does not preserve newlines, so everything in a `\pnote{}` will end up

  in one line of the output file.

  To replace newlines and paragraphs you may use the following commands:

  ```

      sed -i 's/\\\\/\n/g' slides.pdfpc

      sed -i 's/\\par/\n\n/g' slides.pdfpc

  ```
