Make just one slide different size in Powerpoint

Question

Making a powerpoint that\'s supposed to show a before and after of a website. Since it\'s currently a long website I\'d rather make a single long slide to put it on (20\" i

Answer 1

You can't. You can only have one slide size and one orientation per presentation.

Are you projecting the presentation or delivering it on a laptop? If so, the size is sort of irrelevant.
Regardless of the slide size, the projected/displayed image will never be longer or wider than the projector/display accepts.

Answer 2

true, this option is not available in any version of MS ppt.Now the solution is that You put your different sized slide in other file and put a hyperlink in first file.

Answer 3

Although you cannot use different sized slides in one PowerPoint file, for the actual presentation you can link several different files together to create a presentation that has different slide sizes.

The process to do so is as follows:

1. Create the two Powerpoints (with your desired slide dimensions)
   • They need to be properly filled in to have linkable objects and selectable slides
2. Select an object in the main PowerPoint to act as the hyperlink
3. Go to "Insert -> Links -> Action"
4. Select either the "Mouse Click" or the "Mouse Over" tab
5. Select "Hyperlink to:" and in the drop down menu choose "other PowerPoint Presentation"
6. Select the slide that you want to link to.
   • Any slide that isn't empty should appear in the "Hyperlink to Slide" dialog box
7. Repeat the Process in the second Presentation to link back to your main presentation

Answer 4

True you can't have different sized slides. NOT true the size of you slide doesn't matter. It will size it to your resolution, but you can click on the magnifying icon(at least on PP 2013) and you can then scroll in all directions of your slide in original resolution.
