Printing 4 slides on a page -- adjusting margin

Hi,
I am using Keynote 3. I print out slides for handout by using Layout and set number of page per sheet to 4 and using landscape mode. So far everything is fine...but each slide on a page is a bit small. Is there a way to make the slide bigger...there is a lot of available white space between slides and between slides and margins. Thanks.

hello there ... this reply is a bit late, but I just had the same problem you were describing and figured out how to solve it, so I thought I would let you know. The way to adjust margins in Keynote is
1. go to File>Page Setup
2. in the paper size menu, choose custom size
3. create a new Paper Size with a name like "Handout Size" or something
4. in the printer margins, choose user defined and set all the margins to zero, or any other appropriate values for you ...
This should make the slides fill up the empty spaces. Hope it helps.

  • Printing 6 slides per page in Portrait orientation?!

    Hello,
    I have iWork '08. In the past I always printed 6 keynote slides per page, with the page oriented in portrait orientation. However, now it refuses to do that. Even when I have changed the orientation to portrait in the page setup (under 'File'), it refuses to use that orientation when I print. In the print settings I use individual slides, and then in layout I tell it to print 6 slides on a page. At 1, 4, 9 and 16 slides per page, it does use portrait orientation. At 2 and 6 slides per page it suddenly uses landscape orientation. I have checked and checked again, but the page orientation cannot be changed within the print menu. Only in the page setup under file, which doesn't help at all.
    Why does it do this and how do I get rid of it?! I want to print 6 slides on a portrait oriented page!
    Thank you.

    Hi Azoolkool, I figured it out, so here goes: Under Keynote open your file, make sure your View is set up as Navigator view; this way you can see the mini-sidebar on your left side. On the individual slides highlight the slides you want printed by holding down the shift button and click on for example 7-12.
    Now click on File>Print, go to pages and enter in section From: 7 to: 12, Right under this area u should see Keynote drop down bar and on the bottom left area it states: PRINT with some options there, just check off "Individual Slides". To the right of the print section it should state OPTIONS; to keep your slides in color remove the check on "Don't print slide background or object fill". Do check "Add borders around slide" and "Use page Margin".
    Under the FROM and TO page area where you put 7 and 12 in - there is a drop down bar that defaults to Keynote, click on this and go to PAGE ATTRIBUTES to change your page orientation to portrait or landscape. Once done proceed to next step and click on PDF on the lower left hand side and enter into "OPEN PDF IN PREVIEW". It should default to the 7th page as full screen along with the sidebar appearing.
    Now click on File in the preview menu bar and then PRINT - Now uncheck the AUTO RATE and now check the "SCALE TO FIT" - "FILL ENTIRE PAPER". Then below that where it says images per page , change it from 1 to 6 and notice the print preview with six slides on one page. Now hit PRINT on the lower right hand side...
    Hope this helps, I had to learn the hard way today "Trial and Error" as the manual does not state this clearly. Also I'm sure there is a better way but no one has responded yet. Let me know if it works.

  • Printing 6 slides per page

    For my science class we have to print out lecture notes, and my teacher says to print 6 slides per page, and this time it has to be in color. My personal printer is the only one that prints color, the family computer doesn't even have PowerPoint anyway, but that prints black and white. I have Keynote, and when i try to print 6 per page, it prints one whole column of 6 and moves to the next page.

    I want them all spread out like Word does. Can anybody please help?

  • How do I print Keynote slides full-page

    I am testing Keynote 08 and can't seem to be able to print my slides correctly. I don't want a 3 cm margin around the slide on the paper, but the regular full-page print out. No matter what I do, I always get margin. Any clues?

    i am not sure if i understand your question correctly, but are you referring to the empty spaces on the margins that perhaps you want to fill up by making the slide take up the entire space? if so, here's a solution i worked out recently for Keynote 08
    1. go to File>Page Setup
    2. in the paper size menu, choose custom size
    3. create a new Paper Size with a name like "Handout Size" or something
    4. in the printer margins, choose user defined and set all the margins to zero, or any other appropriate values for you ...
    This should make the slides fill up the empty spaces. Hope it helps.

  • How do you adjust Firefox to print what is on email page without adding a 1 inch left marghin to that page as it cuts off some of the right side of the page?

    When I receive an email the page often has a certificate that I would like to print. Using the print function at the top of the page brings up the email as a page as it looks in my web email. When I hit the print button on that page there is always a 1 inch margin added to the printed page cutting off the right side of the desired page to be printed.
    My printer accepts what ever I send it from word, pdf files as they appear on the screen, Why doe Firefox not send the same images as is displayed to the printer?
    This seems to occur whenever the screen shows an image that is almost border to border and not text. When a margin is part of the email message or it is text this doesn't seem to occur.
    HELP Please. I really need to be able to print what is displayed to print the proper document.
    Thanks

    Some pages add their own margin to the minimum margin set in Page Setup. First you might reduce the margin here:
    Alt+f (displays the classic File menu) > Page Setup > Margins & Header/Footer tab
    Second, you could try using Shrink to Fit. However, if the image is a background image rather than part of the content of the page, that might not have any effect.

    Open the document,
    Tap the Tools icon (upper right).
    Tap Document Set up.
    Drag the margins to the position you wish (the actual margin width sould display as you are doing this).

  • Keynote '09 Handouts - Problem printing 6 slides per page

    With Keynote '09, I'd like to print handouts of 6 slides per page, where the slides are of reasonable size, take up most of the space on the page, and are not oriented in a single vertical column. I used to be able to accomplish this with earlier versions of Keynote, but can't figure it out in Keynote '09. Anyone know the secret? Seems like a major flaw in the software.

    In the Print dialog box, tell Keynote to print Individual Slides. Then go to Layout and tell the printer to print 6 slides per page and select the layout option that you would like.

  • Print 6 Slides per Page

    Is it possible to have Keynote print 6 slides per page the way PowerPoint for Windows does (3 slides in each of two columns on the page), rather than 6 slides vertically along the left side of the page?

    sure thing u can do this do a cmd+p and then choose the drop down menu of keynotes and say print individual slides and then choose drop down menu of layout and say pages per sheet as six and there u have it printing isx slides just like in a ppt on a single page covering the entire page i cant imagine the apple guys on the phone not knowing this.

  • Printing multiple slides per page for pdf

    Hey guys. I just downloaded 10.10.1 and I'm unable to print multiple slides per page for my pdf files. Usually before I print, I can choose an option if I want to have 4 or 6 slides per page printed (as this helps to save paper and is how I have my notes for school). But now, it says "copies per page" instead of "slides per page". So the print preview shows the same 1 slide printed 6 times on each paper, instead of 6 different slides on 1 paper (which what is what I was able to do before I downloaded Yosemite).
    Does anyone know how to print multiple slides per page for pdf files???

    Did you try the Layout panel? Page per sheet?

  • PDFing a PowerPoint presentation (slides) in Notes Page print layout - is it possible?

    Hello,
    I have a PowerPoint presentation that I would like to disseminate as slides AND as a booklet. I used the Slides Master to format the slides, and I used Notes Master to create the booklet. In PowerPoint, I can, by default, print the slides. I can also print the booklet by changing the layout to Notes Pages, and everything looks great.
    Now on to PDF.
    I can, by default, create a PDF of the presentation with Print > Print Layout > Full Page Slides (default).
    But Acrobat XI Pro ignores my attempt to create a PDF of the Notes Page View (the booklet) with Print > Print Layout >Notes Pages.
    Has anyone succeeded in getting a PDF of anything other than the standard PowerPoint slide view?
    Thank you for any tricks, tweaks, & wisdom on this!

    I found an alternative but circuitous way of achieving the desired result. In PowerPoint I opened, then I printed the PPT presentationto a PDF selecting the Notes Page option instead of Full Slide. By then using a PDF converter to convert it back to PPT I was able to insert the  PPT as is. In other words it "looks" just like the PPT Notes Page view, which is exactly what I wanted. The code snippet and notes were intact.

  • KDE: margins incorrect when printing because of fit-to-page option

    I'm attempting to print a PDF file with Okular (happens with other KDE/Qt applications as well) to my HP Deskjet D2530 printer. The PDF has one inch margins on all sides, but when printing, additional space is added to the margins.
    The page prints perfectly using lp:
    $ lp /Path/to/PDF.pdf
    Should also note it prints perfectly with non-KDE applications such as epdfview.
    I turned on debug mode in CUPS to find what options KDE sends to CUPS. I narrowed it down to the "fit-to-page" option causing the issue.
    I can reproduce the incorrect margins exactly with this command:
    $ lp -o fit-to-page -o PageSize=Letter /Path/to/PDF.pdf
    Now the issue I'm having is disabling this. I see nowhere in the KDE print dialog to disable fit-to-page, and have searched CUPS' documentation for a way to disable it on that end, but could not find anything. Searching for this issue has similiarly turned up nothing. I've also tried adding "fit-to-page=false" to ~/.cups/lpoptions with no result. I can't be the only one who has dealt with this. Is there some configuration option I'm missing somewhere or should I report this as a bug upstream?

    hello!
    i have a similar problem:
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 3#p1402373
    for me the fit to page cmdline option does not apply and the output is always bigger than one page ... same goes for print menues with the option to turn on/off fit to page ...

  • Data printed twice on the next  page in smartform

    Hi all,
    I ahve created  a smartform where I  print the header details at the start and then below that details for all line items for a particular document.
    so i have data ;ike :
    Header data :
    field 1 : field 2:
    Field3 : field4:
    field5: field6:
    Item data :
    field1 field2 field3 field4 --> Item 1
    field1 field2 field3 field4 -->Item 2
    field 1 field2 field3 field4 -->Item3
    For the Header data,I use a template in a secondary window.
    However for the item data,i use a table in MAIN window (As i know the no of records only at runtime).Also another reason for usng table would be that I dont need the header on each flloowing page but only the Line item details on the following pages.
    Now i have created a second page with only the MAIN window from the First page as I need only the  remaining line item details  to be continued/printed on the following pages.I have actually copied the MIAN WINDOW from the first page to the second page adjusting only the  uppe rand left margin.
    However now when i see the rpint preview.the 1st page data,is printed corrrectly.however on the 2nd page,the 1st record is printed twice.
    Can anyone explan why is this happening?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the replies.
    @Meghanandan,
    I dont want to set any command for going to next page as I dont have any condition to go ot next page.Im setting the width of the first page main window to print sufficient data.
    @satyajit
    I have the text elements under the MAIN AREA.Cna you pls elborate which Points i need to check undre the table node which might have been unnnecesssarily checked?
    Thanks again for your time.

  • How to change a pdf's page size, margins and page orientation? Are there available tools to do this?

    We are converting Lotus Notes documents to PDF by exporting (printing) them to PDF via a PDF writer but found some content are truncated or cropped. We have to manually re-print to pdf using a different page/paper settings in order to capture the content correctly. Are there any other methods or tools which can automate this step? Would it be possible to change the PDF properties to adjust the page size, etc?
    Hope there are some useful tools available as there are thousands of documents that are having this issue. Thank you.

    The page size options are limited, but are in the crop tool. If there are no tags or other markup, you can also print to a new PDF and adjust the size in the printer interface -- sometimes the simplest method, but not normally recommended. The rotation can be done in the document menu and then saved. The rotation that is typically on the toolbar are only for the current view and does not save with the PDF. Many of these you can use a batch process to resolve (in AA8 that is under the Advanced>Document Processing). The better method is to setup your Adobe PDF printer to create the correct page size and orientation in the future. You can setup to typically expand to fit, select a paper size, and have the settings set to auto-rotate. The later is based on the text that is found on the page. The margin elimination is also part of the crop tool. Hopefully this at least gives you some things to look at. Unfortunately, the tools get moved around with every version, so you may have to search for the tools.

  • Printing 6 slides in one portrait

    The slides are cut off at the edges. How can we fit the slides into the paper?
