I would like to insert a page from another presentation (saved as pdf) into another presentation, but i don't want this page to occupy a whole slide, as i want to write something underneath.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

    If you use \includegraphics then the size of the imported image becomes smaller. To avoid this, you can trim the unnecessary part of it. What do you think? – kiss my armpit Oct 17 '13 at 14:26
  • @Marienplatz But \includegraphics doesn't let you specify a page to include. Or does it? If not, then perhaps the best solution is to include the graphics using pdfTeX primitives. It's a bit tricky, but not that hard. – Harald Hanche-Olsen Oct 17 '13 at 14:34

    @HaraldHanche-Olsen: \includegraphics has an optional key-value page=<page number>. – kiss my armpit Oct 17 '13 at 14:49
  • @Marienplatz: That's interesting. I see no mention of it in the documentation (grfguide.pdf), and I am unable to see it graphicx.sty either. But the option works! It's magic! Oh, wait … it's in pdftex.def, it seems. But where the heck is it documented? – Harald Hanche-Olsen Oct 17 '13 at 15:24
  • @HaraldHanche-Olsen: I did not read the documentations but I got it from other answers on this site. – kiss my armpit Oct 17 '13 at 16:36
