I have an issue when printing out poster sized prints on a
wide format printer from PowerPoint. We have many clients
who create their posters in PowerPoint because its easy to
use and the print quality is excellent. The problem is
this:
If I were to have a poster that is 3 feet wide, and 2 feet
tall, this is basically a landscape style document. The
paper role we have is 3 feet wide, and of course vertually
unlimited in length(height). If I try to print this 3x2
poster, PowerPoint automatically forces my printer into a
lanscape mode. This causes the picture to print out with
the 2 foot dimension to print along the 3 foot paper
width, and the 3 foot dimension to print along the roll
length. This wastes paper for me.
What I need is for PowerPoint to allow me to print a
landscape picture in a Portrait mode. Does anyone know if
there are any fixes for this, or if its even possible?
(also, I can export the slides as jpg,bmp,tiff... for
photoshop, and photoshop will print properly, but the
result of the export leaves the text too pixalated, so I
would rather print directly from PP.)
I would appreciate it if people would respond to me by
email because I'm not sure if I will be able to find this
forum again. (e-mail address removed)
