Hi, typical Mathematica itself is used for presentations. That's why you can switch into the presentation mode and it has several positive effects - you can evaluate - you can show animations If you have a alot of equations and don't need the evaluation feature you can still use pdftex with the pdfsceen package to get perfect presentations.
