PowerPoint slide and note content can be published to Word to create handouts. To start this process, open the PowerPoint presentation and click on the Office Button. Select Publish and then the Create Handouts in Microsoft Office Word option. A dialog box will open with several page layout options for the new Word document. Select the radio button for the most appropriate layout and then choose how the slides will be added to the Word document, either using the Paste or Paste Link option. Please note that if the Paste Link option is selected, the Word document will check for updates to the linked PowerPoint content when opened and if the PowerPoint file is moved or deleted, the link will not work.
