Change the design of your handouts in PowerPoint 2007
If you have ever printed handouts for your PowerPoint presentations before, you know that they can be pretty bland. Just the slides all stacked up on a page, with plenty of whitespace.Dreamweaver CS4 is very easy-to-use!
Well did you know that you have complete control over how those handouts actually look? You can add your company logo, or a copyright statement, or remove the date or the page numbers. You can do whatever you want!
All of this is controlled from what is called the “Handout Master”. Those of you familiar with the “Slide Master” will know exactly what we are talking about. The easiest way to describe the handout master is that it is the template for all the handouts printed from the presentation.Office 2007 Pro is so great!
To access the Handout Master in PowerPoint 2007:
1) Click on the “View” tab in the ribbon
2) In the “Presentation Views” group on the left hand side, click on “Handout Master”
Once you are in the master, you can control all manner of different things, including the page setup, the handout orientation (portrait or landscape), the slide orientation on the handouts, and how many slides will appear on each page.Microsoft Office 2007 is welcomed by the whole world.
To get out of the “Handout Master” view… simply click the “Close Master View” button on the right hand side of the ribbon.Office 2007 professional and Office 2007 Ultimate are so powerfull.
