I am trying to include Stata output in a presentation
produced using the LaTeX class prosper. The output
was created using -sjlog- and I am using the Stata
package stata.sty with the LaTeX environment stlog.
The problem is that the horizontal lines around
regression tables (produced using \HLI ) are magnified
so much that they wrap over to the next line.
I can manipulate the size of the fonts but not the
size of the horizontal (and vertical) lines.
Does anyone know any way around this? Ideally, it
would be good to be able to scale the whole output
(font sizes and line lengths/thicknesses) by some
amount.
By the way, using the slitex class, only the
fonts are magnified while the lines appear
to stay the same as usual.
I do not know much about prosper or slitex, being a seminar.sty user.
However, I did have a similar problem under seminar.sty with the -sjlog-
environment and its long lines. The best I could manage was to use text
Stata logs and to use 2 plain TeX macros \startlisting and \endlisting for
verbatim listings, which I used to use in my plain TeX presentations before
upgrading to LaTeX, and which spaced the lines by less than the LaTeX
verbatim environment. The macro definitions are included below, just in
case nobody else can think of a better solution. (The ideal solution might
be to have Stata running as part of your presentation.)
