Changing slide size in Cap 5 handouts?

Hi,
I have published Cap 5 projects as handouts, both with and without tables. Without the tables, I can only get one slide per page--but if I include tables, the slides shrink dramatically (even if I only select 2 slides per page). I have looked at the AdobeCaptivate.dot template file, but I can only edit the header/footer. My goal is to have handouts with 2-3 legible slides per page with blank lines for notes.
Has anyone found a fix for this (that doesn't involve manually resizing each slide image)?
Thank you,
JAB

Keynote is not designed for printing, it is a screen based presentation application. Keynote is unable to translate pixels for display into pixels for printing to correctly size and position.
If your intended output is print, use the companion application Pages, or one of the hundreds of page layout applications for the Mac.

Change slide size in 2 slide/page layout?

Several folks indicated that you can use the "layout" view to produce a handout with 2 slides per page. But there is still quite a bit of white space. How can you increase the slide size on the page to make them bigger? Also, is there a way to add page numbers to the page (I already have slide numbers).

Rocketscience,
welcome to the Keynote Discussions.
Well, I think the border around the two slides I print is just enough to punch and file the paper.
Oh, wait, I'm using [DIN] A4 format. Well, try this:
* In the print dialog choose Layout from the "Copies & Pages"
dropdown box and set "Pages per Sheet" to 2
(you know that but I repeat it for other readers)
* Choose Paper Handling from the same dropdown box and mark
"Scale to fit paper size:". Select A4 from the corresponding
dropdown box (yes, even if you don't use A4 format). Unmark
"Scale down only".
* Print you slides.
There's no possibility to add page (sheet) numbers in the print dialog. You could prepare a file in Keynote or Pages that only prints a page number and print these numbers in a second run on you handouts. Not very elegant but maybe better than to paginate with a counter

HT2925 Change slide size iPad version?

Is their a way to change the exported slide size in keyNote on the iPad version?

Are you bringing in anything from a PowerPoint presentation?
Not sure what's causing it, but one thing you could do to try to highlight the problem is LOCK the file. This way, anytime you try to change it, you'll get a window popping up telling that you can't and that will help you determine at what point the file is being changed.
Save off an original and compare it after a few days to see what the differences are.

Change slide size without resizing objects?

Is it possible to change the slide size without causing Keynote '09 to resize all the objects on each slide?

As far as I can tell it's not possible. You have to make a new presentation with the size you want and copy paste everything from the previous presentation into it.

Scale content when changing slide size

If I resize my keynote slide size to a different aspect ratio, is there a way to have it scale all the content?
I have hundreds of Illustrator files that I have imported into keynote (by drag/drop and it seems to rasterized the image). Making the slide size taller makes the background show through above and below my images. It would be nice if I didn't have to select and scale each individual image using the inspector. I realize the image will "stretch".
I did read someone's suggestion to batch the files in photoshop and resize them all, then re-import them all, but it would make a new presentation and I would lose all my notes and transitions.
thanks

This is an issue happening on your Mac, it is not a common problem, in fact Keynote has never crashed on my system since installing.
Try the following repair for Keynote, ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
1 delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application
2 restart the Mac;   Apple menu > restart
3 immediately after the start chime, press the shift key until you see the Apple symbol.
         let it fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
4 when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and      click repair disc permissions
5 when complete, restart the Mac normally
6 install Keynote from the Mac App Store
Please report back to let us know if this helped.

Since downloading the 2013 Keynote upgrade, the slide image size on handouts with 3 slides per page option is very small. Is there a way to make the slide size larger while still keeping 3 slides per page lines?

With the new Keynote upgrade (version 6.1), the slide image size on handouts is very small, which makes it difficult to read slide content when compiling lecture notes for students. Is there a way to make the slide size larger while still keeping to a format of 3 slides per page with lines?

A number of posts have reported the same issue, two workarounds:
1
check the paper handling options or equivalent in your print dialogue box and set to scale to fit
2
in the Keynote option, in the dropdown menu in the Print section, select Individual Slides
then choose Layout, and set the number of pages, when printed you will have multiple pages on a single sheet.

How do I change the size of my screen, in Develop Module, so that I can access the Exposure Slide in the right-hand colummn?

The right-hand column, under the Develop Module, begins with the Histogram and directly under the Histogram, the Tone Curve is seen. Missing is the Exposure Slide. How do I change the size of the screen to show the Exposure Slide before the Tone Curve?

Right-click (Cmd-click Mac) on the tone curve panel header or any of the other panel headers and make sure there is a checkmark for Basic.

Slide Size Mysteriously Changed

Hi,
I was working on a slide presentation and all of a sudden I noticed in Navigotor mode the thumbnail pictures of the top 2 slides were scrambled and undistinguishable. Then I noticed that the thumbnails seemed smaller for some reason and wondered if I just imagining it. Then, once I closed the document, chose not to save it, reopened... there was a left and right strip of white or "blank" margin on both sides of all of my slides and of the navigator thumbnail pictures were a little smaller in addition to the additional white margins that made them even smaller.
I first went to my "Document Inspector" and wanted to see if I could figure out what might have changed with the slide size but didn't see anything that might cause this to happen.
Is it possible my file became corrupted somehow and now I have to rebuild my whole presentation to remove the white borders and restore proper size to my presentation?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Steve

The file is acting as if the slide resolutions were inadvertently increased. This may be a symptom of corruption. You should be able to copy the information off of the slides, but I'm not sure there is a single fix to remedy the situation. Any material that is based on an object on the slide Masters (such as the title box and body box) can be changed across the entire presentation by changing those items in the relevant Masters. Perhaps someone else has run across this and has better advice for recovery.

Slide size change when clicking on pdf links (Acrobat 9 pro)

Hello,
I have a problem with an interface mock up I have to deliver to a client.
The size of image is changing from a slide to another.
For example, when I click on a home button (this button is a link made in acrobat pro, that send to another page of the pdf document), the slide size changes from full screen to a smaller size with a black border around.
SOrry it's hard to explain, so I put 2 screenshots and hope it will be clear enough >
This happen only if I use clicks on the links.
If I just use the next / previous command (for example if I use keyboard's arrows), the size remain full screen and unchanged for the whole slides.
Can you tell me how to fix this problem?
Best regards,
Mega

Something to try.
Using the link tool select the link.
View the link's properties.
Select the Actions tab.
Select the show action then click the Edit button.
Observe what is displayed.
You'll note that you can configure the value for "zoom".
Be well...

Changing the slide size

I am trying to do a presentation in 11x17, I went into "page setup" and changed the size, but its still the standard 81/2 x 11... Is there something else that I'm supoosed to be doing???
thanks

Can you clarify what you want to do? Paper sizes are not how on-screen presentation dimensions are measured -- presentations are determined by pixel dimensions, which are set in the Document Inspector, in the Slide Size dropdown menu. Changing the Page Setup dimensions will change the paper size that the slides are printed on, but won't change the projected size.

Minimum slide size change

I would like to make a banner or rail slide (720x90) but cant seem to make any slide less than 200pixels (H or W). I would like to export as fla after.
How can I make a slide smaller than the custom size will allow? (under 200 pixels either way).
Is there a way in the code somewhere to set the min sizing different than the 200?
thanks...

If you need to present in different size ratios (e.g., the 4:3 of 1024x768 vs. widescreen HD of 1920x1080) it is wisest to create two separate presentations. Since the slides are of different proportions, there is no way to automatically scale the slides and preserve the proportions.
Do note that Keynote does have preferences that allow you to have a presentation fill the screen (as much as possible) -- in Preference, under Slideshow, check "Scale slides up to fit display". This option will not stretch your slides, and so again if you are using an HD-proportioned monitor with a 4:3 presentation, it will leave black space to the left and right of the presentation.

Slide size change destorys presentaiton...

I am working on a presentation, and thought it would be wise to change the slide size to fit the larger monitor I would be using (changed from 1024x768 to 1920x1080). Everything scaled fine.
To my horror, when I changed the slide size back to 1024x768, nothing scaled properly...the pictures were now to small, lines across the page were now an inch short on both sides, etc. Essentially, it destroyed a lot of work.

2) Any way to recover from my current situation?

Changing the size of a background on Question Slides

Hi All,
I have a Question Pool and I would like the background of the slides to be the same as one i use for a ppt presentation. I have copied the background and used the 'Paste as Background' option you get when right-clicking. It pastes the image but the image is smaller than the slide itself. Does anyone know how to change the size of the background so that it fits the size of the slide?
Thanks.

Hi there
Okay, so it would seem to me that you may not fully understand Captivate and resolutions. So heres the deal.
It appears that you are expecting the image to stetch to fill the entire computer screen. You stated you cannot get the image to size beyond 1440 pixels. Well, this is because your project is sized at 1440 pixels.
Remember, the Captivate movie will usually be played back to the viewer from inside a web browser. Normally you want the movie size to be smaller than the surrounding browser. Like this:
In the example above, the White part of what is inside the browser may be the width of the Captivate movie.
Does this make better sense?
Cheers... Rick

How to change font size on screen

how to change font size on screen

I'm not certain what font sizes you wish to change, when on a page you can use command and the += button to zoom in and make the fonts larger. On the finder desktop you can make what ever is on the desktop larger or smaller from the finder menu click view, custom view options, and adjust the icon size with the slider on the top, and the text using the text size box to select the size that your comfortable with.
Forgot to add these.
