Any PowerPoint gurus?

I am working on a presentation for Europe - I need to submit to our printer there, a presentation in A4 size.

I know how to do it in Word. Is it possible in PPT or should I be submitting this as a PDF and try to figure out how to submit a PDF in A4 format?

Would it be better to design it in publisher with an A4 paper size and then save and send as a PDF?

I am not good at these things, but Publisher is my go-to when I want to design something instead of just create a document.

PowerPoint 2010:

Design - Page Setup - Slides sized for (drop down menu).  From there you can select A4 paper.

Change the master slide. You can change the margins and other things like that from there as well.

There it is! Thank you!!! (We've had PP2010 for a few months now, but I'm still feeling my way around it!)

And thank you, too, Bonnie and Dena, for chiming in!

Glad it worked!  I've had to adapt presentations to show on our widescreen monitors and that's how I do it.  And yes, the 2010 version was not easy for me to adapt to. Too big of a learning curve for a program I've been using for years!

I hear you! On top of that, I just got Vizio and the whole company went back to Outlook - I haven't had the time to take formal classes on any of it, so it's a lot of trial and error, baptism by fire here!

Thanks again!
