handout layout - can it be editted

[vthomeschoolmom]

I am thinking not. I want one slide per handout with lines beneath for notes. I am doing a hands on software training class. The participants will bring their notebooks and will have only one monitor. I want them to be able to take notes on the presentation pages without switching between apps. The handout master does not seem to allow me to edit anything but the header and whatnot placeholders. The Save As does not allow me to export to any format that would allow this.

Anyone have any clever solution I can use? Thanks

You certainly cannot modify or use the handout master.

You MIGHT be able to use the notes pages in some way. If there are no existing notes the students could enter some . If there are maybe drag the notes placeholder off slide and add a shape to take notes. This would need to be on th notes page not the notes master. Just thinking aloud I haven't tested this! Maybe you could enlarge and alter the properties of the Footer placeholder to take notes?
