Powerpoint question.

I want to print out only page 2 of the handouts. How do I make the page number remain page 2, instead of not defaulting to 1.

Yes, I am that crap at this.

Yer not crap, you just lack experience.

I'd print out the first two pages and then only use page 2.

I concur with the learned elvis: powerpoint lets you decide which slides appear on a handout - so it builds what prints dynamically.... in your case, there IS no page 2 !

Thanks.

Dammit. I was trying to avoid that. They've changed one freaking tiny thing on one slide of a presentation that I already have fifteen copies of.

Seriously, the amount of paper I waste in this supposedly electronic age makes me weep.

hrm. On a mac, I would evilly print to pdf, and then just print the page I want.

On a pc, I'd swear a lot. Can't remember if I ever managed to crack this one. If you have a way of creating pdfs from your powerpoint, definitely the way to go - much easier than persuading a microsoft product that you might actually know what it is that you want it to do!
