Eh? Are you talking about the zoom box on the toolbar?

 

[David M. Marcovitz]

Nope, they are not the same. Fit will fit the slide as large as possible
with no scrolling necessary on the current screen. 100% will be the
actual size the slide will be in slide show view, so in Normal/Edit view
(with toolbars and taskpanes showing), you will have to scroll to see the
whole thing.

Aha! Thank you. I was wondering "100% of *what*?"

I sounded really authoritative when I said that, but I just tried it out
to see what I got, and what I got was a zoomed into the size of slide
show view. Maybe I should have looked it up in Kathy's book to see if I
was right
