Lesson 53: “Notes”

53/59 Lessons 

Add “Notes”

“Notes” can be useful while hosting our presentation.

To add a note, click the “Notes” section below the Slide and start typing.

If you wish to adjust the size of the “Notes” section to have more space for your notes, move the mouse pointer over the edge.
When it changes into a double arrow, click and drag it to the desired height.

 

A second way is to click on the “Notes Master” under the “View” tab in the “Ribbon”.

This view is actually meant to be a preview of how the “Notes” pages will be printed but, we can add notes.

 

“Notes Master”

In the “Notes Master”, we control the layout of the “Notes pages”.

The formatting of “Notes pages” is the same as the formatting of a “Handout Master”.

We find the “Notes Master” under the “View” tab in the “Ribbon”.

Click on the ” Notes Master” tab in the “Ribbon”.

By default, a “Notes page” has the “Header”, “Date”, “Footer”, and “Page Number” fields, a field where the slide is shown and a field in which the notes are displayed.
We can also add, delete or move fields in the notes field.
The options in the “Ribbon” are similar to those in the “Ribbon” of the “Handout Master”, so I will not repeat all this.

Awesome!
