Embedded multimedia in LateX/Prosper

The movie15 package by Alexander Grahn is useful for this purpose. The movies embedded, however, cannot be viewed with any PDF reader on Linux.
Prosper & PDF Output
by Mostafa on Feb.24, 2006, under How To ..., LaTeX, Software
Prosper cannot be used with PDFTeX and hence PDF files must be obtained via the DVI -> PS -> PDF route. The default ps2pdf conversion, however, generates a PDF with pages that are a bit too narrow. This is easily remedied by specifying the size of the output desired to the ps2pdf program:
$ ps2pdf -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=x -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=y somefile.ps
Where ‘x’ is the width in and ‘y’ is the height in 1/72″ units. So, for an approximately A4 size output, ‘x’=595 & ‘y’=842.
