Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about processing files securely in your browser
How to print PowerPoint slides with lines for notes as a PDF?
Export your PowerPoint presentation as a PDF (File > Save As / Export > PDF). Upload the PDF to BrowserPowerToys, select 3 Slides Cornell, and choose Ruled Lines. Click Download PDF to get a vector handout with crisp lines next to each slide.
How do I print Google Slides with lines for notes without giant margins?
In Google Slides, download your presentation as PDF (File > Download > PDF Document). In BrowserPowerToys, set margins to Narrow (10mm) and select 3 Slides Cornell. This eliminates the massive wasted white margins forced by Google Slides native handouts.
Can I print 2 slides per page with note lines below each slide?
Yes! Switch the layout style to Under-Slide and choose 2 Slides Under-Slide. Your slides will appear stacked with dedicated ruled writing boxes directly underneath each presentation visual.
Does this tool work offline without an active internet connection?
