For what it worth I provide my "lecture notes" (the ones I used for power
point presentations before) each unit. I can't be sure it improves student
learning or grades, but it gives me some comfort in knowing that students
have the text, my lectures, my power point presentation and the notes to
study from.
I do not reproduce photos, graphs etc. It is too difficult and usually
doesnt reproduce well. I use the 3 per page option on Power Point
