Use the same
Build
effect through each presentation. Audience members should want to predict the content, not which animation you will use next.

Use the pre-defined
Slide Layouts
to make
Applying Templates
easier.
|
|
|
|
|
Applying a Custom Template
may require you to browse for the file from the bottom of the
Design Template
screen.

|
|
|
When
Designing Templates
, set image into background, rather than inserting on slide to avoid printing problems.
|
|
|
|
|
Use 72 dpi for images to be viewed on screen. 150 dpi for images that will be printed. By providing your audience with a copy of your PowerPoint slide set, you can reduce all graphics to 72 dpi. |

Use
RoboDemo/Captivate
to create complete how-to manuals in PowerPoint.
|
|
|
|
|
Avoid using gradients or transparency for images to be inserted into PowerPoint as they greatly increase file size and don't always appear as desired. |
|
|
|
|
Save photos as .jpg files and simpler graphics as .gif files to keep file sizes down as much as possible. |
|
|
|
|
Store
Flash
files in the same folder as the main .ppt file when making the slide set. After embedding the Flash files, you can move them to a different storage location.
|
|
|
|
|
Save your slide set with embedded Flash files as a .pps file and designate it as Read Only to ensure the Flash files play every time the slides are viewed. |
