Why not print simply that mode=presentation? usually thats not wanted in 
order to keep the pagenumber low.

I use mode/handout. Since you can control this behaviour you could 
define an own option to use.

e.g. I use a "Layout/draft" option to control the visual appearance of 
guides and rulers in order to create balances slides. Those lines are 
orange and show up the basic grid and references to the frameing elements.

in my .sty it looks like:
\newboolean{Layout}
\setboolean{Layout}{false} %Zuweisung
\DeclareOption{draft}{%
	\setboolean{Layout}{true}
	\typeout{(II) powerdot-WGM: 'draft'-option received, showing layout 
details in warning-color.}
}
\ProcessOptions\relax

and further more (the drawing of the lines) basically using \ifthenelse

\ifthenelse{\boolean{Layout}}{%
\psline[style=Layout,linewidth=.5mm](\TextX,\TextY)(\TextX,\TextYUnten)
% ...
\psline[style=Layout](0,\TitelY)(\slidewidth,\TitelY)
}
{}%ifthenelse:layout

this should work as a switch in .tex, too. So select the printable part 
of the graphics.

slide, which is then unreadable. With Prosper, I just used \PDForPS{here with nccurves}{here without}
to produce nice slides with curves but a printable version with only one page per slide, without the
curves. How can I do this with PowerDot? For example, is there a command specifying content which will be
completely ignored in print mode?

With powerdot I see very little reason to use mode=print, since mode=handout is much more useful.

Anyway, the answer to your question is quite simple: powerdot has the command \pdifsetup precisely for
that. 

So you can do, for example 

     \pdifsetup{present}{with}{without}

powerdot style gallery

Hi,
I didn't find a style gallery for powerdot, so I created one. This was
done with a quick perl script and some vi power. I will improve the page
when I get some time. Meanwhile, please check,

http://www.shantanukulkarni.org/powerdot/pdgallery.html

Style gallery is a one stop showcase of all the styles and palettes
available in powerdot. This makes it easy to choose required style and
palette.

Comments welcome.

Thanks,
Shantanu

Re: powerdot style gallery

Very nice, thanks. Maybe it's helpful when you add a link to your tex-template.
