HELP HELP HELP

[Guest]

My boss wants a power point presentation tomorrow. I can do that but some of
the files are landscape and some are potrait. I followed the help screen . I
opened my main presentation and opened another presentation to put my potrait
slides. I then opened the main and did action settings and hyperlinked to
the potrait presentation. I then opened the potrait presentation and linked
to main presentation . Where does the potrait presentation show up on the
main presentation. I am lost Can you help me. Thank you for any help you can
give me.

mac,

the portrait presentation can be seen during a "slideshow", when you click
the "hyper link" to the portrait presentation.

It's best, if you don't have the portrait presentation actually "link" back
to the "main" presentation. but instead to just let it "finish" it's
slideshow, then it will automatically pass back to the "main" presentation.

Saying all that, why don't you just copy and paste the portrait slide into
the landscape/main presentation?

When I put the potrait slide in the landscape slide it is to big, Can I fix
this?

If you view the original slide on the "slide sorter", then copy and paste
the "whole slide" onto a slide in "normal" view, then you can just re-size
the whole slide using the "corner handles"

Look at it this way. If this is for a screen show, your screen will almost
certainly be 4 units wide by 3 high, always in landscape orientation unless the
boss is waving a tablet PC about.

Whether you create landscape or portrait oriented presentations, the result will
be pretty much the same: a vertical/portrait picture can only fill the screen
top to bottom, never side to side.

That given, it's simpler to create a landscape presentation - one only - and pop
your landscape and portrait images into it. Size the portrait ones to fit by
dragging a corner handle.
