OneNote: Transferring PowerPoint into OneNote

This tutorial is for those who like to turn powerpoint slides into a few piece of notes OR if you want to start transferring note from your textbook, you can ignore this part.

1. Open your lecture slide and click Outline. You will get simplified form of the slide with only words.
Highlight the contents from the sidebar and copy it.

2. Open your blank template and paste it. You will see that the content exceeds the template but you can adjust the box to fit the template.

Actually, the process is done. All you need to do for this part is copy and paste then adjust the content. What I mean for adjusting the contents is, you can delete unnecessary things such as the

• title from every slide that you copy might be repeated when you paste into OneNote.So you can delete repeated words that you find in your OneNote.
• a wide gap between notes. So, adjust the gap.
• and etcetera things that you find necessary to edit. 

When you copy the content from the sidebar, you will find that you miss something such as the

• table for data or explanation.
• a related image such as a graph.

Go back to your slide and copy it the image/ table. Paste it into the necessary part in your note at OneNote.

This is the final piece after you adjust 

• the font, 
• font size, 
• add some bullet, 
• arrange the table, 
• bold and italic some points
