Re: minipage + prosper problem

I will provide examples. Header is

\documentclass[nocolorBG,ps,ps2pdf,total,rleLetter]{prosperletter}
\usepackage{ccaption}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\captionstyle{\raggedright}

prosperletter is a slightly modified prosperclass that is setup for
8.5 inch x 11 inch paper.  PPPrleLetter is my modified template (for
which I will say \noindent\psgrid is the tool for modifying
templates).

Note the comment character % at the end of the \end{minipage}% line (5th line).
This keeps the newline between minipages from being seen.
The figure is on the left, the caption and itemized list are on the right

\begin{slide}{PPKTP Tuning}
  \begin{figure}
  \begin{minipage}{0.5\textwidth}
    \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{a2}
  \end{minipage}%
  \begin{minipage}{0.5\textwidth}
    \caption{\label{temppic}Signal and Idler wavelengths vary with
      temperature and output angle}
    \medskip \begin{itemize}
    \item   PPKTP was temperature tuned so the forward signal
      and idler outputs were degenerate (center diagram)
    \item A spatial filter limited the collected output angles
      (dashed green line)
    \item An interference filter (IF) limited the collected wavelength
      range (magenta lines)
    \end{itemize}
  \end{minipage}
  \end{figure}
\end{slide}

Here I made the picture on the left slightly less than 1/2 the page width, and
used \hfill. The picture on the right was 1/2 the width.
The itemized list was below the two pictures.

\begin{slide}{CCD Picture Of Output Ring}
  \begin{figure}
    \begin{minipage}{0.45\textwidth}
      \includegraphics[height=\textwidth]{a-ring}
    \end{minipage}\hfill%
    \begin{minipage}{0.5\textwidth}
      \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{image-ring}
    \end{minipage}
    \begin{itemize}
    \item 1 nm wide Interference Filter (IF) near 795 nm
    \item Collinear output were blocked
    \end{itemize}
  \end{figure}
\end{slide}

This has a large picture on the left, some text and the equation* on
the right.  Below is the caption.

\begin{slide}{Quantum Interference Data}
  \begin{figure}
    \begin{minipage}{0.70\textwidth}
    \begin{center}
      \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{PPKTP-visibility}
    \end{center}
  \end{minipage}\hfill%
  \begin{minipage}{0.29\textwidth}
    The visibility V is defined as:
  \begin{equation*}
    V = \frac{C(0)-C(\pi/8)}{C(0)+C(\pi/8)}
  \end{equation*}
    \end{minipage}
      \caption{\label{visibility}Visibility for the
        the hydrothermally-grown PPKTP. Inset plots the coincidence
        flux vs aperture size for the 1 nm IF, showing the trade-off
        between usable flux and visibility}
  \end{figure}
\end{slide}
