I have created a slideshow to do a company presentation. On the powerpoint progam everything looks fine, but when I start the slideshow, parts of the slide are being cut off. Is there something that I can do to rectify this?
 
Hi,

I got caught with something like this once, where an image on the slide was
bigger than the actual slide. Else, it could be a hardware acceleration
issue, or any of these:

First, you should make sure you have the latest version of DirectX. That
may not help your current problem, but it is a wise security move. WARNING:
If you have Windows 2000, you MUST have all Service Patches for Win2K in
place before doing this (Courtesy of Austin Myers).


Second, you should try adjusting hardware acceleration:

Third, update your video drivers. They are the interface between you program
and what you see:

Also, try the general troubleshooting material:



"Don't use PowerPoint for anything serious until you've done this":

If that doesn't solve the problem, at least you have narrowed down the
possibilities Please get back to us so we can progress further.

It sounds like you may have added pictures or other content that goes off the edges of
the slide. Anything that runs off the slide and into the gray area surrounding the
slide in normal view will get cut off in slide show view.

You'll need to readjust the size/position of the stuff on your slides to make sure it
doesn't get cut off.

Now if it gets cut off only when projected, but not on your computer, that's a
different story. If that's the case, let us know, we'll go from there.
