How to Flip a Slide With Microsoft Powerpoint

Slides within PowerPoint presentations may have both portrait or landscape orientations.

A powerful tool for creating slide shows and presentations, PowerPoint offers users a variety of text and object editing features. A blank presentation in PowerPoint will open using a landscape (horizontal) slide orientation. While all slides in a presentation must have the same page orientation, you can flip the slide orientation by following a few steps.

Instructions

1. Launch PowerPoint and open the file that contains the slides that you want to flip.

2. Click the "Design" tab and locate the "Page" setup section.

3. Click the "Slide Orientation" option and select "Portrait". The default slide orientation for PowerPoint presentations is landscape, which is why "Portrait" is selected. If the slide orientation is already portrait then select the "Landscape" option to flip it.
