[Ipe-discuss] "Handout mode" for presentation PDFS?

[Pierre]

There is also a lua script [0] for that purpose on the wiki ( I have not
tried it ). It says:

> Suppose you want to print notes for your presentation. If what you want
is to print everything that can be seen on screen but use the least number
of printed pages, then the following may be helpful. It removes any view
whose layers are a subset of another view's layers. So incremental views
are not shown. (The same can also be done by marking views in Ipe manually,
but this script does it automatically.)
