Publishing Studio 13 presentation to Word

Aug 04, 2016

Hi. When I publish my presenter to Word, it appears as a three-column display with a very fuzzy center column. It can't be read by anyone trying to review it.  I choose Storyboard as Output Type.  Is there anything I can do to display it differently or more clearly? Thanks!

Hi Catherine,

Yes, that looks as I'd expect. When you publish to word, you'll have two Output type to choose from in the drop-down and it determines how much information gets included in the Word document:

  • Storyboard: This option gives you a 3-column layout that includes detailed slide information, a thumbnail image of each slide, and the text from PowerPoint's notes pane.
  • Presenter Notes: This gives you a simple Word document that lists each slide number, slide title, and the text from PowerPoint's notes pane.

There isn't a way to change the set up to show slides only and the slides become a fuzzy based on their smaller size and conversion to images in Word.
