Save As Option Missing In Powerpoint Series Of Graphics

PDF format, I would like a PDF that has all the slides except for slides marked as Hidden in my slide deck.

My colleagues who use Windows do seem to have the option on MS PowerPoint for Windows.

For example, if you select Letter size, the default width and height are 10 x 7.5, so change it to be 11 x 8.5.

Now, everyone with the same problem can find the solution in the Answer section.

There was a bounty involved, and I wanted to grant the bounty to the person who led me to the solution.

You can get around the print margins by setting up a printerpresentation that has no margins, full bleed.

Read the dialog box carefully, and select the option that lets you set a size larger than the printer will allow.

I have never seen the full bleed option in any dialog in the UI.

Perhaps my printer device (Canon MX700) is just not capable of a full bleed.

Does your preview look similar, or do you have the margins even in the preview.

Ill mark this answer as accepted so you get the full bounty.

You could always insert a slide before the hidden slides stating that The following slides are not part of this presentation.just in case you forget to remove them from the PDF before circulating.

Where did those hidden slides originally belong Yet another approach would be to leave the hidden slides where they belong, and either print a custom subset of slides to PDF, or else use a PDF tool like Acrobat or Sejda to excise specific pages from the PDF instead of those at the end.

But all of these seem like unnecessary work PowerPoint should do that for me.

But for consistency the programmers at MS made all Save as formats work the same.
