Help with Power Point Slides

There's an option under 'print' that lets you print 6 to a page- like a workshop handout.

Thanks. I saw that but am hoping to have space to write my own notes as well (by hand). Not sure how to remove the coloured background too. This sort of thing drives me crazy! I can handle the material but am technologically challenged lol.

You should also have the option to print three slides per page with space to take notes as well.

You could always copy and paste the words into a word processing document, and arrange them as you like, with highlighting, comments, or whatever, as much or as little on a page as you want. Then if you want to scribble pictures or graphs or notes to yourself later, you can use an actual pen or pencil :) or if you saved your original file, you could update it.

This sort of thing is trivial in the Mac environment using Pages (see avatar :) ) but there's probably a way to do it in Windoze too.

I make it a policy never to fight a battle of wits with the unarmed. :)

I would do the three slides with lines to take notes. When you open it there is a tab at the top that says format or something that allows you to choose different colors. I just did tjis to fix some powerpoints that were lovely on the computer, but lousy for printing/note taking.

I second (or third...I didn't count) printing the powrpoints 3 per page with the notes option on the side OR 2 per page (which will give you plenty of room to write directly on each one.) I found I didn't really need to write much extra info on the slides during lecture, so I printed them 4 or 6 per page, double sided, and it worked great for me.

Now I annotate my PPs directly on my iPad...no printing required :)

I third (our fourth...) printing three to a page with space for notes, double-sided. I don't usually make more than quick little scribbles on my power points though. Anything more than that goes into my notebook. I date all of my notebook pages so I can keep everything together. I have 6 to a page and that usually works fine. 4 to a page gives a little more room for scribbles.

ohoh me too or five. 3 to a page with a note area. every.single.time. I love power points now.

I did it lol!! It's funny we had a three hour lecture today and then a three hour lab. The material was totally bearable, it's the techology that gets me! Thanks everyone. I'm happily taking notes now on my "3-per page" pp slides! ?

Oh.. And a Mac girl too!
