CUSTOMISING THE SLIDE FORMAT

-

 



Depending on what your presentation will be used for, you can choose between different slide formats.

You can choose plain A4 if you print your presentation on transparencies, or you can choose a format to fit your computer screen, which will also fit a projector connected to a computer.

1. Start with a new, blank presentation. This is the presentation we are going to work with from now on.

2. Choose the Design Tab in the Ribbon and click on the Slide Size button on the Customize Panel as shown below and click customize slide size.


This opens a small window where you can change the settings of the slide format.

3. We will make a presentation that is shown on the screen. It is called an "on-screen show". Make sure that the settings are as shown in Figure above and click OK.
