![powerpoint presentation comments Comments in PowerPoint – Everything You Need to Know!](https://artofpresentations.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Featured-Image-How-to-Use-Comments-in-PowerPoint.webp)
One of the most effective ways of communicating the exact change that you need on a particular slide is using comments in PowerPoint! As opposed to notes, comments get pinned on a particular part of the slide making them more specific and effective!
But, one of the most common questions that people often have is – how to add comments in PowerPoint?
This article will provide you with all the information that you need to know about comments in PowerPoint. We’ll talk about when to use a comment and how to use them. I’ll also share with you how to respond, edit, or delete a comment. That and much more, coming up!
So, let’s get started!
1. What are Comments Used for in PowerPoint?
Let’s start with the basics. Why are comments even needed in PowerPoint especially when there is a notes section where you can just as easily add comments?
Well, as it turns out, even if you give detailed feedback using the notes in PowerPoint , there is always a chance of miscommunication between you and your teammate or the designer! (Just trust me on this)
Comments in PowerPoint are the most effective way of giving feedback to your team member/s especially when the feedback is given remotely rather than in-person. There are no limitations in the number of comments that can be added to a slide.
Apart from giving feedback, comments are also used for making notes to self. Adding comments to specific elements on the slides provides a better recall of what specifically needs to be done on the slide rather than second-guessing.
2. When to Use Comments in PowerPoint?
The best use case for comments in PowerPoint is for giving feedback to the team members or making a note to self.
In a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation, you can add comments to each slide. Adding comments can be useful when you are reviewing a team member’s presentation. You can also add edit notes as comments in PowerPoint.
3. How to Add a Comment in PowerPoint?
Now, let’s understand how do the comments work and what is the process of adding comments in PowerPoint!
There are multiple ways to add a comment in PowerPoint.
To add a comment in PowerPoint, select the slide. Then, click on the “Review” tab, and click on “New Comment”. Alternatively, first, click on the “Insert” tab, and click on the “Comment” option. You can also right-click anywhere on the slide and click on “New Comment” from the options that appear.
However, depending on which version of PowerPoint you are using, one or more of these options may not be available for you.
Nevertheless, let’s take a look at each of these steps in further detail –
Method 1 – Adding Comments Using the “Review” Tab (for PowerPoint 2010)
Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 or older versions have a very easy method for adding comments to a slide. All you have to do is follow the 2 simple steps.
Step-1: Click on the “Review” tab
In Microsoft PowerPoint 2010, open your preferred slide and then click on the “Review” tab from the menu bar located at the top of the screen.
Step-2: Click on “New Comment”
In the “Review” menu, click on the “New Comment” option. A comment box will appear on the slide. Now you can type in your comment in the comment box and move it anywhere on the opened slide.
(Note – for visual reference and guidance, you can check the screenshots in the process mentioned below.)
Method 2 – Adding Comments Using the “Insert” Tab (for Newer Versions of PowerPoint)
In newer versions of Microsoft PowerPoint, some upgrades were made to the comment section and it now has a cleaner look.
You can add a comment through the “Review” menu following the steps for older versions. You can also add a comment through the “Insert” tab. Follow the 2 easy steps below.
Step-1: Click on the “Insert” tab
![powerpoint presentation comments](https://artofpresentations.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/M1S1-How-to-Add-a-Comment-in-PowerPoint.jpg)
The first step is to select the slide where you want to add a comment from the slide navigation pane and then click on the “Insert” tab in the menu ribbon located at the top of the screen.
Pro Tip! You can also add a comment on a slide using the shortcut keys. The shortcut to add a comment for Windows is “Ctrl+Alt+M” and the shortcut to add a comment on Mac is “Cmd+Shift+M”
Step-2: Click on the “Comment” button
![powerpoint presentation comments](https://artofpresentations.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/M1S2-How-to-Add-a-Comment-in-PowerPoint.jpg)
Now you have to click on the “Comment” option in the “Comments” section of the “Insert” menu. It will open a “Comments” sidebar on the right side of the screen.
You can type in the comment in the comment box. You can also move the comment icon on the slide to place it on a specific item.
Method 3 – Adding Comments Using the “Right-Click” Option
You can also add comments on the slide using the righ-click button. This process is perhaps the easiest of them all. Neverthless, here are the steps involved –
Step 1 – “Right-Click” on the slide
![powerpoint presentation comments](https://artofpresentations.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/M1S3-How-to-Add-a-Comment-in-PowerPoint-using-Right-click.jpg)
Select the object where you wish to add comments on the slide, and right-click on it.
A menu will appear with more options. Locate and click on the “ New Comment ” option.
Step 2 – Add the Comment
![powerpoint presentation comments](https://artofpresentations.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/M1S4-How-to-Add-a-Comment-in-PowerPoint-using-Right-click.jpg)
Now, just as we saw in the previous method, a new section will appear to the right part of the screen.
Simply, type in the comment that you wish to add to the slide in this section. You will be using this section for more actions, but we shall be talking about that slightly later in this article.
3. How to Edit a Comment in PowerPoint?
![powerpoint presentation comments](https://artofpresentations.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/M2S1-How-to-Edit-a-Comment-in-PowerPoint.jpg)
Once you have added a comment, you can very easily edit it. All you have to do is click on the “Comments” button at the top right corner of the screen (as shown in the image above).
You can also look for the “ Comment icon ” on the slide and click on it to either edit or read the comments present on the slide.
This will open the “Comments” sidebar on the right side of the screen containing all the comments on the opened slide. Click on the comment you want to edit and type in the changes.
One thing to remember is that you can only edit your own comments. If colleague or team member has replied to your comment, you won’t be able to edit your comment anymore. However, you will be able to reply to that comment.
4. How to Hide a Comment in PowerPoint?
![powerpoint presentation comments](https://artofpresentations.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/M3S1-How-to-Hide-a-Comment-in-PowerPoint.jpg)
In Microsoft PowerPoint, you cannot hide a single comment. You can either collapse it or delete it. To collapse a single comment, click on the “Comments” box at the top right corner of the screen. This will open the “Comments” pane on the right side of the screen.
Click on the arrow at the left corner of the comment box to collapse it. Now you can see a list of collapsed comments in the “Comments” pane.
4.1 How to Hide All Comments in PowerPoint?
Microsoft PowerPoint allows you to hide all comments before presenting to an audience. To hide all the comments, follow the 2 quick steps.
![powerpoint presentation comments](https://artofpresentations.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/M3S2-How-to-Hide-a-Comment-in-PowerPoint.jpg)
The first step is to click on the “Review” tab in the menu ribbon. This will open the “Review” menu.
Step-2: Click on the “Show Markup” option
![powerpoint presentation comments](https://artofpresentations.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/M3S3-How-to-Hide-a-Comment-in-PowerPoint.jpg)
In the “Review” menu, click on the “Show Comments” option from the “Comments” section to open a dropdown menu.
Now click on the “Show Markup” option from the dropdown menu. You will notice the checkmark beside the “Show Markup” option disappears along with all the “Comments” pane and the comment icons inside the slides.
5. How to View a Comment in PowerPoint?
![powerpoint presentation comments](https://artofpresentations.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/M4S1-How-to-View-a-Comment-in-PowerPoint.jpg)

![powerpoint presentation comments](https://artofpresentations.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/M4S2-How-to-View-a-Comment-in-PowerPoint.jpg)
You can also view the comments by clicking on the “Review” tab. Then, click on the “ Show Comments ” button.
This will open the comments section on the right just like the other options.

To view all the comments, click on the “Comments” button at the right corner on the top of the screen. In the “Comments” pane, you can click on the “Previous” and “Next” icons over the comment box to see the comments on the other slides.
However, the “Comments” pane only shows comments present on the selected slide. It will not show all the comments of the presentation. You will have to individually open each slide to view the comments on that slide.
6. How to Review Comments in PowerPoint?

With any slide opened, click on the “Review” tab in the menu ribbon to access the “Review” menu.
Step-2: Click on “Delete All Comments in This Presentation”

If the “Show Markup” option is unchecked, all the comments will be hidden. This is the reason you are unable to see any comment icon on the slide.
To see the comment icons again, click on the “Show Comments” option in the “Review” menu. Then select the “Show Markup” option from the dropdown menu. A checkmark will appear beside the “Show Markup” option and you will be able to see all the comment icons on the slides.

Hi, I’m Lauren Janas, a Program Manager on the PowerPoint team. I’m excited to introduce modern comments in PowerPoint: a set of improved and new features that will make collaborating and using comments an easy and enjoyable (we hope!) experience.
Modern comments
With these updates, you can quickly find and add comments to your PowerPoint presentations with the new modern comments experience.
- Select the object on the slide that you want to comment on and then right-click and select New comment . You can also add a comment from the floating toolbar that appears when you’ve selected an object.
![powerpoint presentation comments PowerPoint](https://office-insider-media.azurefd.net/media/2020/06/PP-Modern-Comments-1.png)
- Quickly find active comments with the indicator in the thumbnail pane.
- In PowerPoint for the Web, comments are visible by default, so you can feel confident your comments will be seen, and you’ll never miss one.*
Improved collaboration
Collaborating with coworkers on projects is faster and simpler.
- Answer questions addressed to you via @mentions in email notification directly from Outlook. Now, there’s no need to open the presentation!*
![powerpoint presentation comments Comments in PowerPoint](https://office-insider-media.azurefd.net/media/2020/06/PP-Modern-Comments-2.png)
- You can only edit your own comments, so you can feel confident about who wrote each comment.
We’ve made a lot of improvements under the hood, too. Updating to the new comments format means that you’ll be ready to take advantage of future features once they are available.
Scenarios to try
- Anchor a comment to an object, and then move the object.
- Resolve a comment that has been addressed, and then find it again.
- Try editing another person’s comment.
Known issues
- *We’re rolling out these features now. If you can see some but not all of these features, the rest will be available to you soon.
- These comments are not backward compatible with the previous comments.
- Customers trying to open a presentation that contains comments that use the capabilities outlined in this post in PowerPoint 2019, PowerPoint 2016, or any other build other than the Current Channel monthly build listed below or later will need to open the file in PowerPoint for the web to view and edit the comments.
- Insiders on Consumer SKUs won’t have access to mentions feature.
Availability
These updated and new capabilities are now rolling out to users running Insider Fast builds.
- Windows: Version 2004 (Build 12730.20010) or later.
- Mac: Version 16.36 (Build 20040102) or later.
- The new experience will only be available in files that don’t yet contain any comments.
- These capabilities must be enabled by IT Admins to be available to Enterprise users.
We typically release features over some time to ensure that things are working smoothly. This is true for Insiders as well. We highlight features that you may not have because they’re slowly releasing to larger numbers of Insiders. Sometimes we remove elements to further improve them based on your feedback. Though this is rare, we also reserve the option to pull a feature entirely out of the product, even if you, as Insiders, have had the opportunity to try them.
If you have any feedback or suggestions, you can submit them using the Help Improve Office button in the top right corner or click Help > Feedback . You can also send your feedback via email , especially if you are experiencing issues blocking you or your tenant from adopting the new comments.
Learn what other information you should include in your feedback to ensure it’s actionable and reaches the right people. We’re excited to hear from you!

Tips to improve
3 things to look for when providing presentation feedback
3 tips for giving effective feedback.
We’re all learning as we go.
And that’s perfectly OK — that’s part of being human. On my own personal growth journey, I know I need to get better at public speaking and presenting. It’s one of those things that doesn’t necessarily come naturally to me.
And I know there are plenty of people in my shoes. So when it comes to presenting in the workplace, it can be intimidating. But there’s one thing that can help people continue to get better at presentations: feedback .
The following examples not only relate to presentations. They can also be helpful for public speaking and captivating your audience.
You’re doing great
- You really have the natural ability to hand out presentation material in a very organized way! Good job!
- Your presentations are often compelling and visually stunning. You really know how to effectively captivate the audience. Well done!
- You often allow your colleagues to make presentations on your behalf. This is a great learning opportunity for them and they often thrive at the challenge.
- Keeping presentations focused on key agenda items can be tough, but you’re really good at it. You effectively outline exactly what it is that you will be discussing and you make sure you keep to it. Well done!!
- You created downloadable visual presentations and bound them for the client. Excellent way to portray the company! Well done!
- Your content was relevant and your format was visually appealing and easy to follow and understand. Great job! You’re a real designer at heart!
- You always remain consistent with the way you present and often your presentations have the same style and layout. This is great for continuity. Well done!
- You always remain consistent with every presentation, whether it be one on ones, small group chats, with peers, direct reports, and the company bosses. You have no problem presenting in any one of these situations. Well done!
- You are an effective presenter both to employees and to potential clients. When controversial topics come up, you deal with them in a timely manner and you make sure these topics are fully dealt with before moving on. Well done!
- You effectively command attention and you have no problem managing groups during the presentation.
![powerpoint presentation comments subscribe-cta](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/9253440/6af09f63-75b0-4522-9f58-657b09d6b6a5.png)
You should think of improving
- You’re a great presenter in certain situations, but you struggle to present in others. Try to be more consistent when presenting so that you get one single-minded message across. This will also help you broaden your presentation skills by being able to portray one single idea or message.
- You tend to be a little shy when making presentations. You have the self-confidence in one-on-one conversations , so you definitely have the ability to make compelling presentations. Come on! You can do it!
- During presentations, there seems to be quite a lack of focus . I know it can be difficult to stick to the subject matter, however you need to in order for people to understand what the presentation is about and what is trying to be achieved.
- To engage with your audience and make them attentively listen to what you have to say, you need to be able to use your voice in an effective manner to achieve this. Try to focus on certain words that require extra attention and emphasis these words during your presentation.
- Knowing your audience is critical to the success of any presentation. Learn to pick up on their body language and social cues to gauge your style and tone. Listen to what your audience has to say and adjust your presentation accordingly.
![powerpoint presentation comments presentation-feedback-examples-person-handing-out-papers](https://www.betterup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog%20Images/Presentation%20feedback%20examples/presentation-feedback-examples-person-handing-out-papers.jpg?width=800&name=presentation-feedback-examples-person-handing-out-papers.jpg)
- During presentations, it’s expected that there will be tough questions . Try to prepare at least a couple of days before the time so that you can handle these questions in an effective manner.
- To be an effective presenter you need to be able to adjust to varying audiences and circumstances. Try learning about who will be in the room at the time of the presentation and adjust accordingly.
- Remember not to take debate as a personal attack. You tend to lose your cool a little too often, which hinders the discussion and people feel alienated. You can disagree without conflict .
- The only way you are going to get better at public speaking is by practicing, practicing, practicing. Learn your speech by heart, practice in the mirror, practice in front of the mirror. Eventually, you’ll become a natural and you won't be afraid of public speaking any longer.
- Your presentations are beautiful and I have no doubt you have strong presentation software skills. However, your content tends to be a bit weak and often you lack the substance. Without important content, the presentation is empty.
Tips to improve
- Remember it’s always good to present about the things you are passionate about . When you speak to people about your passions they can sense it. The same goes for presentations. Identify what it is that excites you and somehow bring it into every presentation. it’ll make it easier to present and your audience will feel the energy you portray.
- Sometimes it can be easier to plan with the end result in mind. Try visualizing what it is you are exactly expecting your audience to come away with and develop your presentation around that.
- Simplicity is a beautiful thing. Try to keep your presentations as simple as possible. Make it visually appealing with the least amount of words possible. Try interactive pictures and videos to fully immerse your audience in the presentation.
- It’s a fine balance between winging the presentation and memorizing the presentation. If you wing it too much it may come across as if you didn't prepare. If you memorize it, the presentation may come off a bit robotic. Try to find the sweet spot, if you can.
- When presenting, try to present in a way that is cause for curiosity . Make people interested in what you have to say to really captivate them. Have a look at some TED talks to get some tips on how you can go about doing this.
- Remember presentations should be about quality, not quantity. Presentations that are text-heavy and go on for longer than they should bore your audience and people are less likely to remember them.
- Try to arrive at every staff meeting on time and always be well prepared. This will ensure that meetings will go smoothly in the future.
- Remember to respect other people's time by always arriving on time or five minutes before the presentation.
- Remember to ask the others in the meeting for their point of view if there are individuals during presentations.
- If you notice presentations are deviating off-topic, try to steer it back to the important topic being discussed.
Presentation feedback can be intimidating. It’s likely the presenter has spent a good deal of time and energy on creating the presentation.
As an audience member, you can hone in on a few aspects of the presentation to help frame your feedback. If it's an oral presentation, you should consider also audience attention and visual aids.
It’s important to keep in mind three key aspects of the presentation when giving feedback.

Communication

- Did the presenter clearly communicate the key objectives?
- Did the presenter give the audience clear takeaways?
- How well did the presenter’s voice carry in the presentation space?
Delivery
- Was the presentation engaging?
- How well did the presenter capture their audience?
- Did the presenter engage employees in fun or innovative ways?
- How interactive was the presentation?
- How approachable did the presenter appear?
- Was the presentation accessible to all?
Body language and presence
- How did the presenter carry themselves?
- Did the presenter make eye contact with the audience?
- How confident did the presenter appear based on nonverbal communication?
- Were there any nonverbal distractions to the presentation? (i.e. too many hand gestures, facial expressions, etc.)
There are plenty of benefits of feedback . But giving effective feedback isn’t an easy task. Here are some tips for giving effective feedback.
1. Prepare what you’d like to say
I’m willing to bet we’ve all felt like we’ve put our foot in our mouth at one point or another. Knee-jerk, emotional reactions are rarely helpful. In fact, they can do quite the opposite of help.
Make sure you prepare thoughtfully. Think through what feedback would be most impactful and helpful for the recipient. How will you word certain phrases? What’s most important to communicate? What feedback isn’t helpful to the recipient?
You can always do practice runs with your coach. Your coach will serve as a guide and consultant. You can practice how you’ll give feedback and get feedback … on your feedback. Sounds like a big loop, but it can be immensely helpful.
2. Be direct and clear (but lead with empathy)
Have you ever received feedback from someone where you’re not quite sure what they’re trying to say? Me, too.
I’ve been in roundabout conversations where I walk away even more confused than I was before. This is where clear, direct, and concise communication comes into play.
Be clear and direct in your message. But still, lead with empathy and kindness . Feedback doesn’t need to be harsh or cruel. If it’s coming from a place of care, the recipient should feel that care from you.
3. Create dialogue (and listen carefully)
Feedback is never a one-way street. Without the opportunity for dialogue, you’re already shutting down and not listening to the other person. Make sure you’re creating space for dialogue and active listening . Invite questions — or, even better, feedback. You should make the person feel safe, secure, and trusted . You should also make sure the person feels heard and valued.
Your point of view is just that: it's one perspective. Invite team members to share their perspectives, including positive feedback .
You might also offer the recipient the opportunity for self-evaluation . By doing a self-evaluation, you can reflect on things like communication skills and confidence. They might come to some of the same important points you did — all on their own.
Now, let’s go practice that feedback
We're all learners in life.
It's OK to not be perfect . In fact, we shouldn't be. We're perfectly imperfect human beings, constantly learning , evolving, and bettering ourselves.
The same goes for tough things like presentations. You might be working on perfecting your students' presentation. Or you might want to get better at capturing your audience's attention. No matter what, feedback is critical to that learning journey .
Even a good presentation has the opportunity for improvement . Don't forget the role a coach can play in your feedback journey.
Your coach will be able to provide a unique point of view to help you better communicate key points. Your coach can also help with things like performance reviews , presentation evaluations, and even how to communicate with others.

Learn how you can close linked presentations in PowerPoint.
When you are collaborating on a presentation, or even if someone else is designing slides for you, you will want to give feedback without editing the slides themselves. Comments are great for such scenarios. A comment is a note that you can attach to any slide object or to a whole slide.
The ability to add comments into your PowerPoint presentation enables you to write important notes for particular slide objects, or for the slide and it is a great way to provide feedback to others about their presentation. Once you add a comment, you can edit the comment and even get replies for the comment.
Follow these steps to add, edit, or delete comments in PowerPoint 2013 for Windows :
- Open a presentation and navigate to the slide where you want to add a comment, as shown in Figure 1 , below.

How to Print Out in PowerPoint With Comments On: A Step-by-Step Guide
Printing out a PowerPoint presentation with comments is a handy feature for reviewing feedback or preparing for meetings. To accomplish this, you’ll need to access the ‘Print’ settings in PowerPoint and adjust the layout to include comments. It’s a straightforward process that can be completed in a few clicks.
After completing this action, you’ll have a physical copy of your presentation that includes all the comments made by you or others. This can serve as a valuable resource for making revisions or as a reference during discussions.
Introduction
PowerPoint presentations are a staple in the business and academic worlds. They serve as visual aids, help to convey information clearly, and can be a powerful tool for persuasion. But what happens when you need to share the feedback on your presentation with others, or you want to have a hard copy to review offline? That’s where printing your PowerPoint with comments comes in handy.
Being able to print out PowerPoint slides with comments is crucial for various reasons. For one, it allows you to see the feedback in the context of the slide they’re referring to, making it easier to understand and implement changes. It’s also essential for meetings and presentations where you might need to discuss the comments with colleagues or clients. Essentially, anyone who uses PowerPoint and receives feedback on their presentations can benefit from knowing how to print their slides with comments.
Step by Step Tutorial: How to Print Out in PowerPoint With Comments On
Before diving into the steps, let’s clarify what we’ll achieve. By following these steps, you’ll be able to print your PowerPoint slides along with any comments that have been added. This is perfect for reviewing feedback or preparing for a meeting where you might need to discuss the comments.
Step 1: Open your presentation in PowerPoint
Open the PowerPoint presentation that includes the comments you want to print.
This step is pretty self-explanatory, but it’s crucial. Make sure you have the correct presentation open and that all the comments you want to include are saved.
Step 2: Click on ‘File’ and then ‘Print’
Navigate to the ‘File’ tab in the top-left corner of PowerPoint and click on ‘Print’.
The ‘Print’ menu is where you’ll find all the settings needed to include comments in your printout.
Step 3: Under ‘Settings’, click on ‘Full Page Slides’
In the ‘Print’ menu, you’ll see a ‘Settings’ section. Click on the dropdown that usually says ‘Full Page Slides’.
This will open up more printing options for your presentation.
Step 4: Choose the ‘Print Layout’
In the dropdown menu, select ‘Notes Pages’ to print the slides with the comments on the side.
When you select ‘Notes Pages’, you’re telling PowerPoint that you want to include the notes pane, which is where the comments are displayed, in your printout.
Step 5: Click ‘Print’
After selecting ‘Notes Pages’, just click on ‘Print’, and your presentation, along with the comments, will begin printing.
Make sure your printer is set up correctly before clicking ‘Print’ to avoid any mishaps.
Additional Information
When printing out PowerPoint slides with comments, there are a few things to keep in mind. Firstly, the comments will print out on the notes pages, which means each slide will be accompanied by a full page of notes. This can consume a lot of paper, so it’s a good idea to review and consolidate comments before printing.
Another tip is to make sure that the comments are properly formatted and easy to read. You can adjust the font size and style of the comments in the ‘Notes Master’ to make them more print-friendly. Additionally, keep in mind that not all printers are created equal, so you may need to adjust your printer settings to ensure the best quality printout.
Lastly, if you’re printing comments for a meeting or presentation, consider organizing them in a way that makes them easy to refer to during the discussion. This might mean printing out a separate copy for each participant or creating a summary of the most critical comments to focus on.
- Open your presentation in PowerPoint.
- Navigate to ‘File’ and click on ‘Print’.
- Click on the dropdown under ‘Settings’ and select ‘Full Page Slides’.
- Choose the ‘Print Layout’ by selecting ‘Notes Pages’.
- Click ‘Print’ to print your presentation with comments.

Missing Comments on Desktop instance of PowerPoint, but showing on web instance.
I hope someone can shed some light on this.
We are running the O365 version of PowerPoint in the office. When the users receive an edited PowerPoint presentation from a colleague outside our organization, it shows there's no comments on the presentation at all. It does gives you the option to create a new comment and when you do, it works fine.
Problem was identified when you open the EXACT same file on the web version of PowerPoint, the comments show up. This is a problem because when sending the final product out to the client, our users assume all comments have been removed from the presentation and then later find out, that is not the case.
Below are the troubleshooting steps I've completed so far:
- I checked with our colleague assuming it was a version mismatch and he is also running PowerPoint O365 desktop app. His build version, is the latest, we are just one behind. I don't see this as being a reason for the issue, as this has been happening for some time now.
- I also ran a VBS code to extract ALL comments from the presentation and it confirms that the file sees none in it's source. I added a comment manually and it exported my comment as it should. But, then I can take that EXACT same file and open it on PowerPoint Web and all the comments re-appear.
- I saved the file in the different formats available for PowerPoint, to see if it was just a file format incompatibility. But, there was no difference.
I'm lost here. It seems to be a formatting issue, but I cannot tell specifically why it shows on web, but not on the desktop app. Any ideas?

Hi N.maldonado,
Sorry for the inconvenience caused by this, we’ll try our best to help.
From your post I understand, you received a PPT from a colleague outside your organization, when the PPT is opened in PowerPoint desktop application, it appears that there are no comments but when opened in PowerPoint online, you can see the comments.
May I know if you see the comment icon on the slide (refer the screenshot below) when PPT is opened in desktop application? To view the comments in PowerPoint application, you must select the comment icon on the slide, this will open Comments pane on the right, and you can see comments for that slide.
For your reference: Add, change, hide, or delete comments in a presentation
If you don’t see the comment icon shown in the above screenshot, please provide us with the following information:
- Please provide the screenshot of Office 365 Product Information . To get this screenshot, open any Office ap such as Word or Excel on the affected system, click File > Account , capture the screenshot of all the information mentioned under Product Information .
- How did your colleague send the PPT to you? Did you receive an email with attached PPT or shared via OneDrive link?
- May I know if you see comments in PowerPoint desktop app if the PPT is shared by a colleague in your organization?
- Please check if you see any comments icon on the PPT slide?

How to Print Powerpoint with Comments: A Step-by-Step Guide
Printing PowerPoint presentations with comments can be useful for a variety of reasons. Whether you need to share feedback with colleagues or review notes for a presentation, it’s helpful to know how to print those comments alongside your slides. It’s actually quite easy: simply select “Print” from the “File” menu, then choose the “Print Layout” option that includes comments. Let’s dive deeper into this process.
After you complete this action, you will have a hard copy of your PowerPoint presentation that includes all the comments and notes. This is perfect for meetings, study sessions, or any time you need to reference comments made on the slides.
Introduction
Ever faced the situation where you needed to print your PowerPoint slides for a meeting and wished the comments could tag along on paper? Well, you’re not alone. Printing PowerPoint slides with comments can be incredibly useful for various reasons. For starters, it allows you to see the feedback or additional notes right next to the relevant slide, making it easier to discuss points during presentations or while revising.
This process is particularly relevant for educators, students, and professionals who regularly use PowerPoint for presentations and need to print materials for offline review. It can also be advantageous for collaborative projects where team members leave comments for review. Knowing how to print PowerPoint with comments can save you the hassle of flipping between screens or documents to view the comments. It streamlines the review process and ensures that you have all the information you need in one place. Let’s jump into the steps on how to make this happen.
Step by Step Tutorial: How to Print PowerPoint with Comments
Before we begin, make sure you have the PowerPoint presentation open and comments already added.
Step 1: Open the “File” Menu
Go to the “File” menu on the top-left corner of your PowerPoint.
In this menu, you will find various options for managing your PowerPoint file, including printing options.
Step 2: Click on “Print”
Select the “Print” option from the menu.
This will take you to the print settings where you can adjust how your document will be printed.
Step 3: Choose the “Print Layout”
In the print settings, look for a section labeled “Print Layout” or similar.
Here, you’ll have different choices on how your slides will appear on the printed page.
Step 4: Select “Print Comments and Ink Markup”
Choose the layout that includes comments. It might be named “Print Comments and Ink Markup” or simply “Notes Page.”
This selection will ensure that your comments are included alongside your slides on the printed pages.
Additional Information
When printing PowerPoint with comments, there are a few additional tips you should keep in mind. Firstly, ensure that your printer settings are adjusted to match the layout you’ve chosen in PowerPoint—this avoids any misalignments or unexpected results. Also, consider the color of your comments; if they are in a light color, they may not print clearly, so opt for dark colors when adding comments you plan to print.
Another tip is to review your comments before printing to ensure they are concise and relevant. This not only makes your printed slides look cleaner but also helps you avoid unnecessary ink and paper usage. If your PowerPoint is comment-heavy, consider summarizing key points in the comment section to save space.
Remember, while printing with comments is a useful feature, always double-check if it’s necessary. Sometimes, digital sharing may suffice and save resources.
- Open the “File” menu in PowerPoint.
- Click on “Print.”
- Choose the appropriate “Print Layout.”
- Select the option to “Print Comments and Ink Markup.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Can i print comments from powerpoint on a mac.
Yes, the process is similar to that on a Windows PC. Just ensure you select the correct layout that includes comments when you print.
Will the comments print in color?
This depends on your printer’s settings and capabilities. If your printer is color-capable, ensure it’s not set to black and white before printing.
Can I choose which comments to print?
Unfortunately, PowerPoint does not offer an option to select specific comments. It’s all or nothing.
How can I save ink when printing comments?
Try summarizing comments or changing the comment text color to a lighter shade, which uses less ink.
What should I do if my comments are not printing?
Double-check that you’ve selected the correct layout option that includes comments. Also, ensure that your printer settings match your layout preferences.
Printing PowerPoint slides with comments is a handy skill that can enhance the way we share and review information. By following the steps outlined, you can easily include all the necessary feedback and notes on your printed slides. Whether you’re a student, educator, or professional, this feature of PowerPoint can elevate your presentations and collaborative efforts.
Remember, while the option to print with comments is beneficial, it’s essential to use it judiciously to avoid unnecessary waste of paper and ink. Always consider if digital sharing could suffice before opting to print. As we embrace a world that’s increasingly digital, it’s crucial to balance convenience with sustainability.

Start the presentation and see your notes in Presenter view
Using Presenter view is a great way to view your presentation with speaker notes on one computer (your laptop, for example), while only the slides themselves appear on the screen that your audience sees (like a larger screen you're projecting to).
If you're using a newer version of PowerPoint, just connect the monitors and PowerPoint automatically sets up Presenter View for you.
If Presenter view appears on the wrong screen, you can swap the display quickly .
Turn off Presenter view if you prefer not to use it.
