Does anyone know how to enlarge these slides so they are more readable in
this format?

1) No way to override Powerpoint
2) if instead of printing directly, you print to a file, and specify a
larger size paper, the slide-images will be bigger
3) then you have to futz with things to get the file printed on normal paper

I've used that trick in the past, it is a pain. But it give much
greater control ...

If you print to a .PS using a postscript printer, GhostScript can
convert to PDF easily. GhostScript can also convert to .JPG, .PNG &c
allowing hand-trimming of the images in, for example XnView ...

I know of no simple automatic way to do this. (Of course, there is also
the Don Lancaster method of printing to a .PS file then hand editting
the .PS ... that is beyond my level of futzing under the hood)
