Jan's Working with Presentations
Advanced: Summary
Working with
outlines helps you organize your thoughts. With planning, you can use
an outline in a plain text or word processing document to create a presentation.
Spaces, tabs, or heading styles mark the various outline levels.
Images, tables, and charts can add interest
and information. These objects can be animated along with the text.
Charts can be revealed by series or by category. You must be careful to
keep it simple enough for your viewers to be able to read.
You have many choices of how to play your
presentation and therefore how to save it.
Package for CD allows you to take
extra files and fonts along and, in PowerPoint 2007, even a viewer for old computers without PowerPoint.
