The notes pane is where you want to type notes to yourself that you can refer to during your presentation. Now, these notes are not going to be visible to your audience and the only way they would be is if you actually print your presentation as a handout and distribute it to the group. Now, your notes pane is right down here on the bottom of your presentation and let's just simply take a look at some notes I'm going to type related to this and only this slide. I want to, when I introduce my report here for the sales report on our global marketplace, I want to mention to the audience that China was our top market with 60 percent of international sales. Ok? So when this slide comes up, I'm working here, I'll see this note and say oh yeah, I need to mention that China was our top market with 60 percent of international sales. Now, I can, if I have more notes, I can resize this by simply clicking and dragging here because the last thing you want to have happen is, let's get back down to this, regular size here, is 60 percent of international sales, Beijing was our biggest market in China and now you see what happens is that I will have to be scrolling through this if I'm giving my presentation so what I can do is just simply drag that and increase the size of the notes pane. Notice that my slide is automatically shrunk to fit and I can, it just kind of maxes out right here. So if you have a lot of notes, you can resize this accordingly. Now, notice that that set of notes only applies to this slide. With my new slide I have nothing and my global size of my notes pane is, like I said, global so I would need to resize this here if I want to work from that again. You might be better off taking another view and going to the view tab and you can look at the notes page and see what your audience is going to see. In this particular case, nothing because we haven't typed anything there. So I'm going to go ahead and go back up to our first slide and you can do that over here with the slide bar and you can see what our notes would look like if this were a handout. So I'm going to zoom in just a little bit so we can see our notes and what that looks like. Again, I can also use the zoom slider to reduce the size of that. So again, notes are simply just notes to yourself that you want to use or refer to during your presentation. You can also use those notes as part of your handout.
