I would LOVE to have this option- I am a visual person who loves her some paper....I could quickly cut/rearrange tweak the 25 slides I'd like to print out (publish to Word and print), then plug my changes in to the course itself- but I can't do that, because I am unwilling to print 300 pages (the entire story file) to get 25 pages of one scene.
This would be a great option. The workaround is to publish the entire story and then either delete the pages you don't want or copy the pages you do want into a new document. You can collapse the headings to make this go faster.
I realize this is an old thread, but it seems to be the most-recent example of the topic. I really appreciate the addition of the "filtered" publishing enabled in SL3, but I'm puzzled why the ability to publish an entire project, a single scene, or a single slide is offered in every publication option EXCEPT publishing to Word. I used the link in Leslie's response to request the product-development team consider extending the functionality to ALL publishing formats. I realize the entire file can be published and then the Word file can be edited, but this is onerous, tedious, time-intensive, and prone to error: I've "over-deleted" pages/slides on more than one occasion since I highlight/delete big batches at once.
What you're saying makes sense! Thanks for taking the time to submit a feature request to our team. If we add this functionality to the Publish to Word feature in the future, we'll let you know!
I'd love to be able to print to PowerPoint. When rapidly developing courses, I rarely have time to create a true storyboard, but a storyboard is required in my group. If I could publish to PPT when I'm done, my storyboard will match the final version.
Thanks for joining the conversation, Jan. Looks like you'd like for the ability to publish to PowerPoint – I'll make sure our team sees this Feature Request, too!
You mentioned storyboarding, so I wanted to share some discussions around how folks outline, write, and author courses in Storyline:
HI there, just checking on an older post. I don't think I see it, but in case I am missing it, I need to print just one scene for a SME to review and so I was hoping to just publish the scene to word. I know we can select specific slides for other publishing options, but is this still not doable in word. Would be really helpful. Thanks
I agree. Publishing just one scene to Word would be a great option. I have a couple of "eBooks" I created in SL360. When I have to update a chapter and give it to a SME to review, one file may publish as 200 pages in Word. I only need to send the SME 10 pages, so I have to delete about 190 pages to just get the SME the one section. Annoying! I will add this to the feature requests as well.

Hi Kat,

Word will print selected pages. Not what you want, but better than going without.
Hi Kat!
Be sure to share your thoughts with our product development team here as well.

Hi Teresa,
You are correct. The ability to publish only specific slides or scenes to Word is not a feature at this time.
I've connected this conversation to our internal report as we continue tracking this request. Here's how we manage these feature requests.
Thanks Leslie,
I would appreciate it so much if it could be added, would be very convenient when working with SMEs.
