Slides
Paper automatically breaks up your doc into slides.
If you'd like to choose where your slidebreaks are, you can add a horizonal rule:
- Type --- and press enter
For example, if you have a bulleted list, it may all appear on one slide:
- Bullet 1
- Bullet 2
- Bullet 3
- Bullet 4
- Bullet 5
- Bullet 6
You can add a horizontal rule to make sure that your bullets are on two slides:
- Bullet 1
- Bullet 2
- Bullet 3
- Bullet 4
- Bullet 5
- Bullet 6
