How do I change a slide from landscape to portrait in PowerPoint?

You can change a slide from landscape to portrait mode in PowerPoint by following these simple steps:

  1. Open your PowerPoint presentation.
  2. Click on the “Design” tab on the ribbon at the top of the screen.
  3. Look for the “Slide Size” button, typically found on the far right of the “Design” tab.
  4. Click on “Slide Size” and a drop-down menu will appear.
  5. Select “Custom Slide Size” from the drop-down menu.
  6. A dialogue box titled “Slide Size” will appear. Here, you can choose the orientation of your slides.
  7. Under the “Slides” section, select “Portrait”.
  8. Click “OK”. A pop-up box will then appear asking how you would like to scale the existing content. You can choose to “Maximize” to fit the content to the new slide size or “Ensure Fit” to make sure all content fits on the new slide.
  9. Click “OK” once more to close the box and apply the changes.

Please note that changing the orientation may affect the layout and formatting of your slides, so you might need to adjust the elements on your slides after the transition. If you need assistance in redesigning your slides for a portrait orientation, SlideGenius offers a range of professional PowerPoint design services to enhance your presentations.
