Hello,
My name is Greg. I am a medical student. Every day I get tons of study 
materials in either .docx or  .pptx format.  Most often me and my colleagues 
print them for later use.  Given our lifestyles (running like crazy), the  
best way to carry those around is in a booklet format.   We do that with the 
Word documents through the page setup. Unfortunately, it is does not appear 
possible with Power Point unless there is a specific option on a printer, 
which is not our case. Converting to the Word does not seem to help either: 
it takes forever to process and it does not allow to choose how many slides 
can go per page. 
Any suggestions?
Thank you

If you have Microsoft Publisher, you might want to export your PowerPoint 
slides to Publisher using Send to Publisher add-in from 
http://officeone.mvps.org/ppt2pub/ppt2pub.html. Microsoft Publisher natively 
supports booklet printing.

Assuming you have PPT 2007, you can save the presentation as a PDF (there's a 
free add-in for this from MS, or if you apply SP2, the add-in's installed 
automatically for you).

Then open the PDF in Acrobat Reader, choose Print and in the print dialog box 
next to "Page Scaling", choose "Muiltiple pages per sheet" or "Booklet 
printing" and experiment with the various add'l settings that appear.

Perhaps you can help me too.  I've got a pain in all the diodes down my left 
side.  I realize you're not quite a full-fledge doctor yet, but this isn't 
really a full-fledged pain, so I was wondering if maybe ...

Perhaps you should ask about your diodes in some other forum.
