Using A3 size page on powerpoint (1 Viewer)

[MysticalElement]

hey everyone
ive got to make a poster for a uni subject, it has to be A3, so i thought i'd use powerpoint, i set the page as A3, but it seems to fit shit all info on it.... i had a look at some examples from last year and they seem alot bigger even though they are A3 in size..... is there something wrong iwth powerpoint sizing or is it just really hard to tell looking at it on the computer....

edit; just realised their A3 size isnt the correct A3 sizing....

Just make the text smaller to fit more on. Then u can print it out in A4 and get it enlarged to A3 at uni or a printing shop

Publisher is better, imo
