I was wondering if anyone could help me with a problem I have printing the
notes for a presentation in outlook 2000.

Most of them seem to printout OK but I have on page which has a lot on notes
and the program only seems to print out part of the text. It doesn't matter
what I do it still won't let me print the rest, and it won't let me copy the
text and then paste it into Word or similar so I can't even get around it
this way.

The printer and drivers are fine as I've used them with allsorts of programs
for about 6 months, and the notes for other slides which are shorter
printout fine.

Has anyone any ideas?

Have you tried the "File", "Send to", "Microsoft Word" option to see if your
notes print? You have a little more flexibility that way and you can always
delete the Word file after printed.

Hello,

PowerPoint notes are essentially unchanged from the earliest days of
PowerPoint and is limited to printing the amount of notes which fits inside
of the page area of the Notes page view. The "Send to Word" feature has
provided some additional flexibility but, unfortunately, takes you away
from being able to keep your presentation authoring workflow (and content)
entirely within PowerPoint.

If you (or anyone else reading this message) have suggestions about how
notes in PowerPoint should be improved so that you don't feel compelled to
use Word for additional notes authoring, printing, etc. (without having to
resort to VBA or add-ins), don't forget to send your feedback to Microsoft
at:
