Summary description: Generic beamer theme in the style of Hochschule Niederrhein
Announcement text:
beamertheme-niederrhein is a generic LaTeX beamer theme providing ready-made slide types for lecture presentations: a title slide, a section-divider slide, ordinary content slides with a source-citation line, and three image-slide layouts (two, three, or four images sharing a single caption). Bibliographies are handled through biblatex with the bibtex8 backend, so no separate biber binary is required. The package ships with a generic placeholder logo; institutions wishing to use their own logo can simply replace the image file (and, for LuaLaTeX users, re-embed it) -- see the package documentation for details. This is a resubmission of a package previously submitted under the name “hsnrbeamer”; it has been renamed, restructured, and its placeholder logo replaced to address feedback from the CTAN reviewers.
The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/beamertheme-niederrhein The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/beamer-contrib/themes/beamertheme-niederrhein/
