[Tex/LaTex] LaTeX – using HA-prosper – Error : \ProcessKeyvalOptions{Hyp}

errorshyperref

I have started using the HA-Prosper packages with a very simple code, but I get an error, here is the code:

\documentclass{prosper}
\usepackage{HA-prosper}
\title{Internet Traffic}
\author{A.B}

\begin{document}
\maketitle

\end{document}

While this a fairly simple code to just create the title, I am getting this sticky error:

! Package hyperref Error: Wrong DVI mode driver option `ps2pdf',
(hyperref)                because pdfTeX or LuaTeX is running in PDF mode.

See the hyperref package documentation for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
 ...

The error is produced because you are running your code using pdflatex and you can't use pdflatex directly with the prosper document class; you can use latex to run your document and produce a .dvi file and then turn this into .ps format to finally convert it into .pdf format. Your editor most probably has ways to automate this process.

However, since prosper and HA-prosper are outdated, I would suggest you to use another document class for your presentations: beamer or powerdot.
