Marco - instead of exporting to eps, "print" to a file, and it will
generate postscript, and much smaller. Then, ps2pdf will handle it
well.
Mike, I would suggest using Marco's instead, if flyers are going to be
handed out tomorrow. It looks a bit better, and says "GNU/Linux". And
I don't think that we are going to be able to fit much more on the flyer
without getting rid of course descriptions, or making things very small.
Meanwhile, I will ry to make up a new two-sided, folded up pamphlet
like we had for the expo, except more tailored towards our classes.
