I have solved the same problem by use of the \input command.

Make three tex-files, one containing the bulk of your text, say 'slideshows.tex'. Then make a file 'handoutversion.tex' containing

\documentclass[handout]{beamer}
\pgfpagesuselayout{4 on 1}[a4paper,border shrink=5mm, landscape]
\input ...

Hello LaTeX-Community!

I am a LaTeX instructor giving annual courses to university students in Trondheim, Norway (NTNU), and I am recommending latex-community.org to the students as a good place for help and discussions.

My slides are in Norwegian, and released under CC-BY-SA 3.0, available at ...

For reference, I add here what I did on my RHEL5 (Redhat Enterprise Linux) computer with TeX Live in order to increase memory:

$ cd ~
$ mkdir -p texmf/texmfcnf
$ cp /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf ~/texmf/texmfcnf/

Now I edited my copied texmf.cnf, the ...

Without having tried by brute-force, I would guess the answer to your question is 'no'. latex2html and friends can never cope with all document classes and packages in LaTeX, and I am quite sure that the letter-class is an example of this.

If you really need HTML and PDF from the same source, I ...

What you should do ...

Yes, the listings package can do that using the 'firstnumber' option, documented on page of the documentation. I issued 'texdoc listings' on my computer and the documentation popped up.

An alternative to editing the (wrongly set) aspect ratio within the file using GIMP, you may explicitly set the height as well in the includegraphics call,

\includegraphics[width=6cm,height=4.08cm]{d152-2k}

where I calculated 4.08cm by hand (assuming 1:1 aspect ratio for the pixels in the ...
