I need to produce a bunch of slides in a 16:9 format for wide screen display.
How do I change the slide size to 1280 x 720?

You don't set slide size to screen sizes in pixels. You set it in inches or
cm, depending on your local settings.

You simply need to set the slides to a size that's *proportional* to 16x9.

16" x 9" is one obvious choice. <g>

Or if you want to keep the standard 7.5" height, go for 13.33"

Steve,
Thanks for responding.
I have since found the answer - you go to Page Setup and select Onscreen 4:3, 16:9 or 16:10.
