Message: [QUOTE="Echo S, post: 2702839"] PPT doesn't allow you to change the size of the slide images on its handout pages. Could it be that the size difference you're seeing is the difference between printing handouts with 2 slides per page vs, say, 3 slides per page? (The 3/page are much smaller.) The handout page size is tied to the slide size. You can see that under File/Page Setup. What size is the page listed as there? The author of the presentation may have specified a custom size. So I don't really know how the person would have provided you with a PPT file that would print handouts with larger slide images. (Sure wish I did, though, as that would be very handy to know!) Here are some thoughts for your other presentations: If you go to File/Print and click Properties next to the printer name, you may be able to set your page size to A4 or something. That's a little bigger than letter sized paper, but I don't know that it will affect your slide image size much. Perhaps you can set a custom page size there, though? Oh, B4 paper would be about 13x10... Oh, another thought would be that you could print to a post-script printer. Most of these would allow you to do "n-up" printing. You could choose to print "slides" instead of handouts and then use the post-script settings to do 2-up "slides" as opposed to just printing handouts with 2/page. (See the difference?) I don't know that that would actually change the size much either, although I haven't tried it. Just thinking aloud. File/Send to Word will give you a table with slide images that you can resize. That is usually the workaround when one needs to print handouts with larger slide images. Shyam's Handout Wizard is a great add-in for this type of thing also.
