How do I set the correct aspect ratio for output latex box? #49

Closed syomantak closed 1 year ago

I do not get to select how 'wide' the generated piece of latex pdf is. How can one change this? For example, if I I want the output to be a box of width equalling the entire slide width, then how do I achieve this? I can't simply scale the pdf/image since that changes the latex text size inside the box.

To give some context, I am writing my PPT text in latext as well as there are way too many in-line math symbols. I just want the output pdf/image of text to be of the desired width.

It sounds like you need to determine the size of the page in your LaTeX document. The simplest is to use \textwidth=600pt (or another value that suits your needs) in the preamble. Please see this thread for other suggestions.
