Print an Outline View of Your PowerPoint Presentation

When converting PowerPoint presentations to Word, the fifth option is to print an outline of all the text in the PowerPoint presentation. No graphics are shown in the outline, but this view is the quickest to use when editing is needed.

What is different in PowerPoint 2010 than in earlier versions of PowerPoint, is that the outline prints the text in the identical size of font as on the actual slide, rather than making the font size much smaller, and easier to read. Therefore, as shown in the image above, you will need to manually edit the outline handout to reduce the font size, if desired.
