Is it possible to create a presentation with the sizes of
a Wide screen without stretch you image/logo,, what is the
best way to do this.
 
Just make sure you do this page setup before you create the presentation to
avoid having to check for resizing problems.

Good point. Or if you have to convert later, you can generally create a copy
of the original, set it to the new size, then keep both open side by side;
delete any distorted graphics from the new/wide one and copy them back in from
the original.
 
How do you get to this article? Interested to know if my
19x6 presentation will fill the screen of 19:6 plasma
screen.

Hello,

When you change the aspect ratio of slides in a presentation, PowerPoint
will, necessarily, resize and reposition items relative to the new center
coordinates of the slides. Since PowerPoint cannot distort text it can only
be resized proportionally (even though the slide has been resized
non-proportionally) so there will be times when you will have to manually
re-adjust items containing text after change the aspect ratio of slides in
a Presentation.

If you (or anyone else reading this message) have suggestions as to how
PowerPoint should handle non-proportional changes to the aspect ratio of
slides, don't forget to send your feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS, please) to
Microsoft at:

As with all product suggestions, it's important that you not just state
your wish but also WHY it is important to you that your product suggestion
be implemented by Microsoft. Microsoft receives thousands of product
suggestions every day and we read each one but, in any given product
development cycle, there are only sufficient resources to address the ones
that are most important to our customers so take the extra time to state
your case as clearly and completely as possible.

IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of
suggestions)
