I have for many years distributed handouts that are 4-up, double-sided i.e., 8 slides per physical sheet and never, ever had a single complaint. The trick is to use a printing technique that eliminates all extraneous white space between and around slide images.
I saw a few hundred pounds of handouts sitting on just one of the tables in the convention center late Friday. Not sure how much was on all the other tables spread around, but it was more than a little.
Not sure about those "other" tables, but a semi-annual perusal of the official "Extra Speaker Handouts" table, Friday @ noon, is an excellent way to learn which speakers consistently over-estimate the popularity of their sessions! Good thing it all gets recycled ...
