Showing a PPT Presentation on a Flat Screen HDTV

Some of you have taught at our Lincoln campus and have discovered that several of the classrooms only have flat screen HDTVs. When you show your 4:3 ratio PowerPoint presentations, the graphics and text will be squashed in height and stretched in width. To prevent this from happening to you, go to File in the Menu Bar and choose page setup; Change the size of the slides to be 8 inches wide and 4.5 inches high. On the Seward campus, you would use this same size if you were to show your presentation on one or both of the flat screen HDTVs in the Hall of Fame room in the arena. When our current CUNE laptops are replaced, they will have a wide LCD screen, so this is a useful template for the future.
