How do I change print margins on notes in Powerpoint?
I'm a student who has lots of powerpoint lecture and notes to print
out.....so I like printing out the notes page and changing the printer preference to 2 slides per page on landscape. The problem is, even when I go to master notes page and stretch out the slide and the text box to near the edge of the paper, the final print ends up with a 1 inch margin around the 8.5X11 sheet of paper. I know that through Word, I can change the print margins by going to setup, but Powerpoint doesn;t have this option (at least not anywhere I can see). Thanks. |

PowerPoint does not allow you to have print margins like Word.
If this feature is important for you, do put it across to Microsoft through the MSWISH initiative: http://register.microsoft.com/mswish/suggestion.asp -- Geetesh Bajaj, Microsoft PowerPoint MVP PowerPoint Notes: http://www.indezine.com/notes Free Templates: http://www.indezine.com/powerpoint/t...templates.html Technical Specialist, PowerPoint Live http://www.powerpointlive.com "thelittleprincess" wrote in message ...

The handouts (2-up and so on) are controlled by the handouts master, not the notes master; and unfortunately, you can't change the position/size of slides on the handouts master. Hop over to http://www.mvps.org/skp and look for Shyam's Handout Wizard.
