Default sizing of the slide after sending to Word

G

Guest

When I use the "File - Send to - MS Word" feature and select "Notes below
slides" the resultant MS Word document automatically re-sizes all my slides
to 75% of their original size. I know I can individually select each of
these Word images and re-size them, but that's a bit too tedious for hundreds
of slides. I want to be able to set the "default image size" or at least be
able to somehow modify the size of ALL the embedded slides in "some simple
way". :)

All suggestions are welcomed! Thanks...

Thanks David, but that Add-In does not allow sizing options; it also does not
put my notes under the slides.

Still looking for a solution... :)

Are you sure. I haven't tried to do exactly what you are doing, but I
believe that the Handout Wizard lets you create your own custom format so
you can get the handout to look just like what you want. Perhaps, Shyam
(who wrote it) will pop in here with more details.

Hi Dieter,

you can't change the default size of the slide images without programming.

Your name sounds German - if you are able to read German, drop me a line
and I could eventually mail you an Add-In which lets you export the images
in custom size. But I don't remember, whether it allows you to export notes
text, too.

Kind regards,
Ute

Hallo Ute,

Ja, mit einem Namen wie “Dieter†bin ich wirklich Deutsch gebohren. Mein
Deutsch ist nicht mehr das Beste, aber ich kann doch noch die meisten Sachen
lesen und auch verstehen; mein Deutsch ist gewiss nicht so gut wie Ihr
Englisch… J

Ich wuerde gerne ein Add-In erhalten das mir erlaubt das zu erreichen was
ich will.

Viehlen Dank fuer Ihre Hilfe!

Hi Dieter

The other way round would be to change the size in Word
programmatically. Should be a very short macro for a VBA-savy
Word-expert (loop through the supposedly InlineShapes collection and
resize, maybe).

If you want to go this route, ask in one of the .word.vba groups. (or
..de.word.vba :)).
