Are there any easy tricks to printing out Power Points to eliminate the blue background?  It's a great waste of blue ink.

I am proponent of changing the presentation slide size to 16:9.  Be aware, if the slide size is changed after material has been added that material will be stretched.

I don't think the 16:9 format will help you but I am willing to help.  Might you be able to send your presentation over to look at?  My e-mail address is tyler.folsom at gmail.

Do you mean the background color of each slide?  That is easily changed.

You may need to change the slide master to change the background color.

Try printing in pure black and white. That might do it for you.

I'll try the black & white idea.  They are other writer's presentations, not mine.
