Create a slide list

A printed list of slides is very helpful when you present. You can use the list to move quickly to a specific slide (in Slide Show view, just type the number of the slide and press Enter). To create a slide list, follow these steps:

  1. In the left pane, which usually shows slide thumbnails, click the Outline tab.
  2. Right-click in the left pane and choose Collapse >Collapse All. (In PowerPoint 2003, display the Outlining toolbar—Choose View > Toolbars > Outlining. Click the Collapse All button on the Outlining toolbar.) All you should see in the Outline pane are the slide numbers and titles.
  3. Choose Application button (File) >Print to open the Print dialog box.
  4. From the Print What drop-down list, choose Outline View.
  5. Click OK.

You’ll get a list of slide numbers and their titles. If you don’t have any text in the title placeholder, the title will be blank. If you don’t want text but want a title, a good tip is to use the Title layout, insert descriptive text in the title placeholder, and then drag the placeholder off the slide. The title will show in your slide list, but not in Slide Show view.
