MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / August 2006Power Point 2007 beta 2 grayscale problems
Power Point 2007 beta 2 has grayscale problems for printing handouts. The color slides will not become grayscale for printing. Has any one had the same problem with a fix? What happens if you print? How do they look like? Patrick Schmid -------------- http://pschmid.net > Power Point 2007 beta 2 has grayscale problems for printing handouts.

However, if the text is yellow on a dark blue background, then you can barely see the text after printing. The issue is that using the feature to change the color slides to a grayscale or back and white, etc., the PPT 2007 does not change it. I do not want to change all of the fonts into black text throughout the file. In order for me to meet deadline dates, I installed Office PowerPoint 2003 and was able to change the color slides into grayscale easily. So, now I have PPT 2007 as well as PPT 2003. If there is an easy fix to change color slides into grayscale, I would be interested to hear from you. Thanks for your cooperation and patience. > What happens if you print?

I don't think there's an easy fix for this, Myron. I know the PPT developers are still working on the whole B/W and Grayscale things -- or at least that was the case not very long ago -- and they're not working properly in Beta 2. If you want to send me a sample slide or two, I can take a look, but I suspect using 2003 for this is going to be the way to go for now. email is echos at indy dot net.
