About this title

Synopsis

PowerPoint 2000 in easy steps covers the latest version of this popular presentation package. The author takes the reader through PowerPoint, enabling them to create slides and slide shows for personal or business use

The opening chapter shows how to launch PowerPoint 2000 and create new or existing slide shows simultaneously. Working with toolbars, document views and how to set Zoom levels is also covered. It then moves on to introduce the basics of producing a slide show and how to apply new layouts to slides. It also covers how text errors are corrected automatically, how to use text placeholders as a shortcut to text entry, creating text boxes, formatting and spell check. The reader can also discover how to save slide shows to the Internet.

Chapter three covers detail on slide design: how to apply, change and copy colour schemes between slides; how to apply design templates; working with headers and footers; and finally saving the presentation as a template for future use.

Further chapters cover working with objects right from creating lines through to making Auto Shapes 3D. From inserting charts to using multimedia the reader will learn about the various graphic formats - such as bitmap and vector, and how to insert sound and film clips into slides. Next the reader is shown how to fine-tune presentations, prepare slide shows and finally, an indispensable chapter on presenting slide shows.

The range of topics covered within the book, and explained so concisely, makes it ideal for the novice user and equally suitable for current users who have yet to discover all that PowerPoint 2000 has to offer.
