What is the Page Size? Mar 07, 2017

Show notes

For print design, if a client says they need a letter size piece or a client in Europe says the project needs to be A1, we know exactly the dimensions of the project. With PowerPoint the page size is not always clear, or consistent. Part of the issues are aspect ratio does not equate to a physical dimension and another part is PowerPoint has updated page sizes or just has confusing options. Troy, Nolan, and Sandy talk in-depth about page size options for presentation projects.
