PPT7: Lines on Handouts Page Vary in Thickness When Printed (155476)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows 95
This article was previously published under Q155476 SYMPTOMS
When printing handouts (3 per page), Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows
95, version 7.0 automatically places lines on the right-hand side of the
printout. You may find that the line thickness varies from page to page,
or even within a page. There are no menu options to control or disable
this feature.
CAUSE
The thickness of the lines on Handouts is influenced by the bottom slide
image on each Handouts page. The color and line thickness of the line
or border that is closest to the front of the 3rd slide image controls
the thickness of the lines on the right side of the page.
RESOLUTION
One way of controlling this behavior is to place a line or bordered
object of the desired thickness and color on every 3rd slide, then use
the Bring to Front command on the Draw menu to bring the object to the
front of the stack of objects on that slide.
The line may be hidden within a thicker line of the same color, if
desired, but must not be obscured by a filled object.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed
at the beginning of this article.
