Here is a minimal file. The file defense.tex can also be downloaded from
http://petitlien.fr/dvi
(The defense.dvi at the above link was made from the full file and not
from this minimal tex file)

The above works fine with TeXLive 2008 when compiling to DVI, PS and
PDF. But it doesn't work with TexLive 2011 (updated as of Dec 29, 2011).
I have never been able to make it work with TeXLive 2010 also.
Would anyone kindly show me how to process this tex file to get the
right PS and right PDF files. I've tried virtually all commands that I
could on the command line with TexLive 2011/2010 but was never successful.
Thank you very much.

Dear Calleecharan
Could you try to send just a minimal tex file? I have tried to make
the ps but got some errors (figures, etc). If it is what I recall, the
problem is in config.ps file.

Hello,
I have been using powerdot for some years (since 2008) with TexLive
on Windows XP and with the recent versions of TeXLive I cannot simply
produce a PS or PDF output with the correct layout in powerdot. So I keep my
TeXLive 2008 to create my presentations in powerdot. Here is a link to a DVI
file (defense.dvi) that I produced in powerdot.:
http://petitlien.fr/dvi
(The link will expand to a Guest account in GMX).
Can someone test with commands at the command prompt (dvips and ps2pdf) if
one can produce correct PS and PDF files? I have tried but without any
success.
Thank you.
My best wishes for a great new year.
Best Regards,
Y.Calleecharan
