    copied!<p>If I understand correctly, the question is how to generate two copies of the presentation simultaneously. To do this, you use some low-level tex commands and several files.</p> <p>In <code>Presentation.tex</code> you might have</p> <pre><code>%&amp;pdftex \relax \immediate\write18{pdflatex -synctex=1 PresentationWithBG.tex} \relax \immediate\write18{pdflatex -synctex=1 PresentationWithoutBG.tex} \end </code></pre> <p>That is the only file you will actually have to run latex on, which you do with <code>pdftex --shell-escape Presentation.tex</code>. But you will also need the following.</p> <p>In <code>PresentationWithBG.tex</code> (note that you don't actually need <code>\usebackgroundtemplate</code> before each frame):</p> <pre><code>\documentclass{beamer} \setbeamercolor{background canvas}{bg=} \usebackgroundtemplate{\includegraphics[width=\paperwidth]{&lt;your_background_fig&gt;}} \input{PresentationContent} </code></pre> <p>In <code>PresentationWithoutBG.tex</code>:</p> <pre><code>\documentclass{beamer} \input{PresentationContent} </code></pre> <p>In <code>PresentationContent.tex</code>:</p> <pre><code>\begin{document} [All your actual presentation goes here...] \end{document} </code></pre> <p>When you run <code>pdftex --shell-escape Presentation.tex</code>, you'll get <code>PresentationWithBG.pdf</code> and <code>PresentationWithoutBG.pdf</code>.</p> <p>Note that <code>%&amp;pdftex</code> in <code>Presentation.tex</code> makes sure that whichever version of TeX is running switches into the right mode. You could actually run it with <code>pdflatex</code>.</p>
