Question

when printing multiple handouts, which option group multi page document together and make then easier to distribute​

Answer 1

Answer:

On top of that, you’ll learn some PowerPoint printing tricks, including how to print multiples slides on one page PDF.

But before you print your PowerPoint presentation, an important question to answer first about your deck is:

Are you distributing your slides as handouts in a professional setting?

If so, I recommend formatting your PowerPoint Handout Master (as discussed below) with your company logo, contact information, etc., before you print your slides. Adding just a few simple things will vastly improve the professional quality of your handouts.

[Watch] Printing multiple slides on one page

Follow these steps to print 4 slides per page in PowerPoint as handouts.

1. Click the File tab

Click the File tab to get to the backstage view in PowerPoint

Within your PowerPoint presentation, click the File tab to open the backstage view.

2. Select Print

Click Print to open the printing options in PowerPoint

In the backstage view, click the Print group to get at all of the printing options in PowerPoint.

3. Open the Layout Options

Open the Layout Options drop down to see all of your different handout options.

4. Select 4 slides per page

Select 4 slides per page in the handouts section

In the Handouts section, you can choose how many slides per page you want. In this case, I’ll select 4 Slides Horizontal.

As you select the different handout options, you get a live preview of what your handouts will look like on the right. This is a good time to double-check that your handouts look right.

5. Click Print

Click print to print your handouts with multiple slides per page

After you’ve made all of your printing option selections, including how many copies you want to print, click Print.

If you print lots of files and documents like this from computer, I recommend learning the Print shortcut.

Ctrl + P to print on a PC

Cmd + P to print on a Mac

This universal keyboard shortcut works in Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint (and almost any other software program you will ever use).

Using it saves you from having to use your mouse to navigate to the printing options every time you want to print a document.

To learn other useful time saving PowerPoint shortcuts, see our shortcut guide here.

In the same way, you can choose to print 6 slides per page (horizontal or vertical) or 9 slides per page (horizontal or vertical) as pictured below.

Handout options for printing 6 slides per page and 9 slides per page in PowerPoint

As you make your printing option selections (see the next section below), you will see a live preview of your handouts on the right of the dialog box. This live preview includes any formatting you add on the Handout Master as discussed above.

If you don’t like the look of your handouts in the live preview, either select a different handout layout, adjust your print settings or reformat your Handout Master.

Answer:

The process is as follows.

Explanation:

Print the presentation

• Select File> Print.
• Under Printer, select the printer you want to print to.
• Under Settings, select the required option.
• Print all slides: Print each slide on a single sheet or just a series of slides.
• Slides: From the drop-down list, select whether to print all slides, selected slides, or the current slide.
• Alternatively, in the Slides box, enter the slide numbers you want to print, separated by commas.
• Print Layout: Select whether to print slides only, speaker notes only, outlines, or handouts only.
• The number of slides per page is also optional and is an effective way to save paper.
• The outline prints only the text in the slide, not the image.
• Presentation notes show slides and related speaker notes below them.
• When printing handouts, you can print multiple slides on pages with different layouts. Some slides have space for notes.
• Color: Select either color, grayscale, or pure black and white.
• Edit Header and Footer: Select this option to edit the header and footer before printing.
• In [Copies], select the number of copies to print.
