OneNote / PDF 4-up question
Started by LetItSnow
It might be easier to just ask the prof to post it twice, once the usual way and once in either the 1 slide pdf or just the plain old ppt file so you can choose. I think he'll find its a pretty popular decision, based on the way people in my class function anyway.
Yeah. I had 50:50 success with that last semester. Decided it might be beneficial to just post here and see if somebody knew a trick or two.

If they set it to four slides, and you can't change it under the normal print settings that means it is permanent.
Our pdf's are all posted as 1 slide per page, or 3 slides with type writer enabled notes.
If they post it 1 slide per page, you can still change print settings to print multiple pages at a time. But if you've already gone into the print settings and checked, it must permanently be locked on 4 🙁
pdf's are so annoying compared to powerpoint.

OT: Hi Blackat. Haven't seen you in a while. I showed up (for an hour) at the pig roast happy hour but didn't see you. Happy new year.
I adjust the size to where I want it and take screen snippets of every slide or every 2 slides. It's not too bad unless the PDFs are super long.
Yeah. I considered that. But it seemed tedious to do that repeatedly.
I also looked at http://ciju.wordpress.com/2008/07/21/splitting-pdf-slides-4-up-to-1-up/ but didn't have any luck getting it to work. Got it to run successfully and produce output, but it was blank output and I haven't figured out why.
Hrm.
After a fair bit of hunting..... these tools appear to do the trick very, very nicely.
Briss: http://briss.sourceforge.net/
Pdfscissors: http://www.pdfscissors.com/
On the whole, I think I prefer the latter; it just feels a bit quicker for me to use. But they're both free and they both do the job.
Figured it might be worth something to other people to know about these too.....
