INTRODUCTION TO MICROSOFT POWER POINT

PRESENTATION BASICS

PowerPoint includes all the features you need to produce professional-looking presentations. When you create a PowerPoint presentation, it is made up of a series of slides. The slides contain the information you want to communicate with your audience. This information can include text, pictures, charts, video, sound, and more.

Before you begin adding information to slides, you need to know the basics of working with slides. In this lesson you will learn how to start a new presentation, insert new slides, modify a layout, move and copy slides, how placeholders work, as well as how to save your presentation.

Creating New Presentations

When you open PowerPoint from the Start menu or from an icon on your desktop, a new presentation with one slide appears by default. You can also create a new presentation while PowerPoint is already open.

Click the Microsoft Office Button and choose New from the menu.

The New Presentation dialog box will appear. Blank presentation is selected by default.

Click Create, and a new presentation will open in the PowerPoint window.

The default slide that appears when you create a new presentation is a Title Slide layout.

SLIDE BASICS

Slides contain placeholders, or areas on a slide that are enclosed by dotted borders. Placeholders can contain many different items including text, pictures, and charts. Some placeholders have placeholder text, or text that you can replace, and thumbnail-sized icons that represent specific commands such as Insert Picture, Insert Chart, and Insert Clip Art. Hover over each icon to see the type of information you can insert.

About Slide Layouts

The placeholders are arranged in different layouts that you can select when you insert a new slide or that can be applied to existing slides. In the example above, the layout is called Title and Content and includes title and content placeholders.

A slide layout arranges your slide content. Layouts contain different types of placeholders that you can use depending on what information you want to include in your presentation. Each layout has a descriptive name, but the image of the layout shows you how the placeholders are arranged on the slide.

Slide Basics (cont.)

To Insert Text into a Placeholder:

Click inside the placeholder. The placeholder text will disappear and the insertion point will appear.
Type your text once the insertion point is visible.
Click outside the placeholder when you have entered all your text into the placeholder.

When you enter text or use the icons to insert items, the placeholder text and/or icons disappear as soon as you start typing.

To Insert a New Slide:

Click the New Slide command in the Slides group on the Home tab. A menu will appear with your slide layout options.

Click the slide you want to insert. A new slide with the chosen layout will appear in the center of the PowerPoint window and in the pane on the left.

To Change the Layout of an Existing Slide:

Select the slide you wish to change.
Click the Layout command in the Slides group on the Home tab. A menu appears with your options.

Click an option to select it. The slide will change in the presentation.

WORKING WITH SLIDES

To Copy and Paste a Slide:

Select the slide you wish to copy.
Click the Copy command on the Home tab.
Click inside the slides tab on the left task pane. A horizontal insertion point will appear.
Move the insertion point to the location you want the copy of the slide to appear
Click the Paste command on the Home tab. The copied slide will appear.

You can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl and C to copy the slide and Ctrl and V to paste it.

To Delete a Slide:

Select the slide you wish to delete.
Click the Delete command in the Slides group on the Home tab.

You can also delete a slide by pressing the Delete key on your keyboard.

Using Different Views from the PowerPoint Window

In the bottom, right corner of the PowerPoint window are three view commands. From here, you can change the view to Normal, Slide Sorter, or Slide Show view by just clicking a command.

Normal is the default view and where you will create and edit your slides in the center slide pane and all the slides will appear on the slides tab in the left task pane.

Slide Sorter is a view of your slides in thumbnail form. The slides are presented horizontally, which allows you to see more slides at a time.

Slide Show view fills the computer screen with your presentation so you can see how the presentation will appear to the audience.

SAVING YOUR PRESENTATION

If you are saving a document for the first time, you will need to use the Save As command; however, if you have already saved a presentation, you can use the Save command.

To Use the Save As Command:

Click the Microsoft Office Button.
Select Save As. A menu will appear.
Select the type of file you would like to save the presentation as. The two most commonly used file types are:

PowerPoint Presentation -- This saves the presentation as a 2007 PowerPoint file. Only users with PowerPoint 2007, or the compatibility pack, can view the file without possibly losing some of the formatting.
PowerPoint 97-2003 Presentation -- This saves the presentation so that it is compatible with some previous versions of PowerPoint. If you will be sending the presentation to someone that does not have Office 2007, you should use this file type.

The Save As dialog box will appear. Select the location you wish to save the document using the drop-down menu.

· Enter a name for the document.

Click the Save button.

To Use the Save Command:

Click the Microsoft Office Button.
Select Save from the menu.

Using the Save command saves the document in its current location using the same file name.

TEXT BASICS

It is important to know how to perform basic tasks with text when working in PowerPoint. In this lesson you will learn the basics of working with text including how to insert, delete, select, and move text, as well as how to work with text boxes.

Text Basics (cont.)

Select the text you wish to modify.
Click the Bold, Italic, or Underline command in the Font group on the Home tab.

Click the command again to remove the formatting.

Other Font Commands

Increase Font Size command increases the font size of the selected text to the next standard font size.

Decrease Font Size command decreases the font size of the selected text to the next standard font size.

Clear All Formatting command removes your recent formatting changes.

Justify: Justified text is equal on both sides and lines up equally to the right and left margins.

The alignment commands align the text within the placeholder or text box it is in, not across the slide.

TEXT BOXES

In addition to inserting text in placeholders, you can also insert text into text boxes. Text boxes allow you to add to the predefined layouts so that you can place text wherever you want on a slide.

To Insert a Text box:

Select the Insert tab on the Ribbon.
Click the Text Box command in the Text group.
Click and drag the cursor until the text box is the desired width.
Release the mouse button.

To Move a Text Box:

Click the text box. Your cursor becomes a cross with arrows on each end.
While holding the mouse button, drag the text box to the desired location on the page.
Release the mouse button.

To Resize a Text Box:

Select the text box.
Click one of the square sizing handles on the left or right sides, or a circular handle on one of the four corners.
While holding down the mouse button, drag the sizing handle until the text box is the desired width.

Click and drag the green circle to rotate the text box.

Moving Text

To Copy and Paste Text:

Select the text you wish to copy.

Release the mouse button and the text will appear.

THEMES AND BACKGROUND STYLES

A theme is a predefined combination of colors, fonts, and effects that can be applied to your presentation. PowerPoint includes built-in themes that allow you to easily create professional-looking presentations without spending a lot of time formatting. Each theme has additional background styles associated with it that can be applied to the slides to modify the theme.

In this lesson, you will learn how to apply a theme, modify theme colors, theme fonts, and theme effects, as well as apply a background style.

About Themes

When you create a new presentation in PowerPoint there is a theme applied even though the slide background is white. This default theme is called the Office Theme. The Office Theme consists of a white background, and Calibri font of various sizes for titles and body text.

You can apply a different theme to your slides before you add text or make changes to the default slide. An advantage of doing this is that the location of the text will not move. If you apply the theme after you enter text on the slides, the text boxes and placeholders may move depending on the theme you choose.

An advantage of entering some of your text before applying a new theme is that the live preview feature allows you to see how the themes will affect your specific text. The example below is the Aspect theme.

Themes (cont.)

You will need to know how to apply a theme and how to switch to a different theme if you want to use this feature to create presentations. All of the themes that come included in PowerPoint are located in the Themes group on the Design tab.

To Apply a Theme:

Select the Design tab.
Locate the Themes group. Each image represents a theme.

Click the drop-down arrow to access more themes.
Hover over a theme to see a live preview of it in the presentation. The name of the theme will appear as you hover over it.
Click a theme to apply it to the slides.

You can access additional themes on Microsoft Office Online or create your own.

Fonts that are changed with the font size and style menus will not change when you apply a new theme.

Modify Themes

You can also modify the current theme colors, fonts, and effects. For example, if you like the Urban theme, but would prefer to use more of the color red in the presentation, you can change the colors of the theme and create a new, custom theme. If you would prefer to use the font style Verdana so that your presentation font will match your company logo and materials, you can modify the font combination and save it.

The PowerPoint themes are powerful because they allow you to create professional-looking slides easily. The option to modify these themes makes it an even more robust and powerful tool because you can customize the themes based on your needs and preferences.

To Switch to a Different Theme Color Option:

· Select the Colors command in the Themes group on the Design tab.

· Hover over a color group to display a live preview of the color combination on the selected slide.

When you switch to a different theme, the background styles are updated based on the new theme colors. The background style options for the Urban theme are different than the background style options for the Apex theme. The colors are different based on the theme colors.

To Apply a Background Style:

Click the Background Styles command in the Background group on the Design tab.
Click a style to select it. The new background will appear in the slides.

You can select Format Background from the menu to open a dialog box and make changes to the background color.

VIEWING AND PRINTING SLIDES

Once you finish creating the slides, you may want to view your presentation to make sure all the slides appear how you want. PowerPoint gives you the ability to view the presentation in four different ways, depending on what task you are completing. For example, if you will be using your slides to talk to an audience, which is how PowerPoint is often used, you may want to practice your presentation and view your slides in slide show view.

Viewing and Printing Slides

Slide Views

It is important that you be able to access the different PowerPoint slide views and use them for various tasks. Three of the four views are visible from the default view, Normal. The slide view commands are located on the bottom, right side of the PowerPoint window in Normal view. Click a view command to switch to that view.

Normal View: This view is where you create and edit your slides. You can also move slides in the Slides tab on the task pane on the left.

Slide Sorter View: Miniature slides are arranged on the screen in this view. You can drag and drop slides easily to reorder them, and see more slides at one time. This is a good view to use to confirm that you have all the needed slides and that none have been deleted.

Slide Show View: This view fills the computer screen with a slide and is what the audience will see when they view the presentation. The slide show view has an additional menu that allows you to navigate through the slides, as well as other features you can use during a presentation.

Use the arrow keys, Page Up and Page Down keys, space bar, and Enter key to move through the slides in slide show view. Press the Esc key to end a slide show.

The Slide Show Menu

Arrows: The forward arrow displays the next slide and the back arrow displays the previous slide.

Menu Icon: Click the menu icon and a menu appears that gives you the option to move to the Next or Previous slide, jump to a specific slide, change your screen options, or end the show.

Pen Icon: Click the pen icon and a menu appears that allows you to change your cursor to a ball point pen, a felt tip pen, or a highlighter, and choose the color of the pen. This allows you to annotate your slides and make notes while you present to an audience.

Notes Page View

The fourth view is Notes Page view. It is not one of the view commands included at the bottom of the Normal View; however, it can be accessed from the View tab. Notes Page view provides a space for presentation notes, often called speaker notes. The notes can be added to the presentation from this view. You can enter your speaker notes directly into the text placeholder in Notes Page view, or in Normal view, you can enter your notes in the area below the slide.

To Change to Notes Page View:

Select the View tab.
Locate the four view commands on the left side of the Presentation Views group.
Click Notes Page View.

Printing

You may want to print copies of your slides for the people who view your presentation or for yourself. There are three print options available from the Microsoft Office Button menu -- Print, Quick Print, and Print Preview.

To Use Print Preview:

Click the Microsoft Office Button.
Select Print Print Preview. The presentation opens in Print Preview format.
From here you can view each slide in grayscale, make decisions about whether to print the slides individually or as handouts, choose options, and more.

To Print:

Click the Microsoft Office Button.
Select Print Print. The Print dialog box appears.
Select the printer you would like to use, if you have more than one printer.

Click Properties. From here you can make choices about paper size and whether to print double-sided. These options vary from printer to printer.

Leave the default setting, All, selected, or click Slides.
The field beside it will become active and you can enter the slide numbers of the slides you want to print.

Decide what you want to print -- slides, handouts, notes pages, or an outline.

Handouts print many slides per page. The default is 6, but you can change that to 3 and have room for the person to take notes, or set another amount of slides per page.
Choose horizontal or vertical slide layout, if given the option.
You can print Notes Pages, if you typed speaker notes for the slides.
Choose to print in grayscale or color.

Choose the number of copies to print.
Click OK.

WORD ART AND SHAPES

There are many features and commands you can use in PowerPoint to create visually appealing slides. Two of these features are WordArt and shapes. WordArt allows the user to create stylized text with textures, shadows, outlines, and more. It can be applied to text on any slide. Additionally, in PowerPoint, you can insert a variety of shapes such as lines, arrows, callouts, stars, and basic shapes including rectangles and circles.

In this lesson, you will learn how to apply and modify WordArt styles, as well as insert and modify various shapes on a slide.

USING TRANSITIONS

Transition effects, or transitions as they are often called, are the movements you see when one slide changes to another in slide show view. Transition effects are different than animation effects. The term animation in PowerPoint refers to the movements of text and objects on the slide, while transitions refer to the movement of the slide as it changes to another slide.

In this lesson, you will learn how to apply and customize transition effects.

Applying Transitions

To Apply a Transition to One Slide:

Select the slide you wish to modify.
Select the Animations tab.
Locate the Transition to This Slide group. By default, No Transition is applied to each slide.
Click the More drop-down arrow to display all the transition effects.
Click a slide transition effect to apply it to the selected slide.

Hover over a slide transition effect to see a live preview of the effect on the slide.

To Apply a Slide Transition All Slides:

Select the slide you wish to modify.
Select the Animations tab.
Locate the Transition to This Slide group. By default, No Transition is applied to each slide.
Click the More drop-down arrow to display all the transition effects.
Click a slide transition effect to apply it to the selected slide.
Click Apply To All to apply the transition to all the slides in the presentation.

A star Play Animations icon will appear beneath any slide that has a transition effect applied to it, as well as any slide that uses animation effects for text or objects. The icon is visible on the Slides tab in the task pane on the left and in slide sorter view. Click the star Play Animations icon to preview the animation or transition effect.

Modifying a Transition

To Set Slide Transition Speed:

Apply a slide transition effect to a slide.
Click the Transition Speed drop-down menu in the Transition to This Slide group on the Animations tab.
Select a menu option to apply the transition speed to the selected slide.

You can set the transition speed when you apply the transition effect, or return to the Animations tab and apply it later. If you wish to apply the transition effect and transition speed to all slides Click Apply to All.

To Set Slide Transition Sound:

Click Apply To All if you wish to apply the transition effect and transition sound to all slides.

To Remove a Slide Transition Effect:

Select the slide you wish to modify.
Select the Animations tab.
Click No Transition in the Transition to This Slide group.
Repeat this process for each slide you want to modify.

Click Apply To All to remove the slide transition effect from each slide in the presentation.

ADVANCING SLIDES

Advancing to the Next Slide

By default, in slide show view you click your mouse to advance, or move, to the next slide. This setting is defined in the Transition to This Slide group on the Animations tab. You can modify this setting so that each slide displays for a specific period of time before automatically advancing to the next slide. This is useful for unattended presentations, such as at a trade show booth.

You can also advance to the next slide by pressing the Enter key.

View the slides in slide sorter view.
Select a slide.
Select the Animations tab.
Locate the Advance Slide section of the Transition to This Slide group.
Enter the time in the Automatically After field. Use the arrows or type the number.

Select another slide and repeat the process until all the desired slides have the timing set.

If you want to apply the same transition effect and timing for each slide, just set the transition effect timing for one slide and click Apply to All.

USING THE SLIDE MASTER

Each time you apply a new theme to your slides, a slide master appears in the background. It stores information about the theme such as font style, colors, effects, placeholder size, text alignment, and more. The slide master allows you to easily make changes to all slides or a specific slide layout.

In this lesson, you will learn how to use the slide master view to apply changes to the slide master and supporting layouts.

Using the Slide Master

The Slide Master

The easiest way to make the same change to all slides or slides that use a specific layout is to change the slide master, also called the master slide. For example, imagine that you like a theme, but want to change a specific design element of the theme. You may want a different bullet style, slide titles that are center-aligned instead of left-aligned, or an accent line under each slide title. You can quickly make these changes and more by modifying the slide master.

To View the Slide Master:

Select the View tab.
Click the Slide Master View command in the Presentation Views group.
The slide master tab will appear as the active tab on the Ribbon, and the slide master task pane will appear on the left.

About Slide Master View

The slide master view appears similar to normal view; however, in slide master view master slides are displayed in the task pane rather than actual slides. The first thumbnail image in the task pane on the left is the slide master that controls all the slides. If you want to make a change to all the slides in a presentation, you can do so by changing this slide.

Each slide below the slide master is a master slide for a supporting layout. For example, if you want to make a change to all the slides that use a Title and Content layout, you can do so using the Title and Content layout master slide in the task pane.

Making Changes to All Slides

Any change that you can make to a slide in normal view can be made to the slide master so the change will be reflected on all the slides in the presentation. The following examples will show how you can make these changes, and move from the Slide Master tab to other tabs on the Ribbon while the presentation remains in slide master view.

To Change the Theme Font on All Slides:

Select the View tab.
Click the Slide Master View command in the Presentation Views group. The Slide Master tab will appear active.
Select the slide master for all the slides, if it is not currently selected.
Click the Fonts command in the Edit Theme group on the Slide Master tab.
Hover over each option to display a live preview of the font option on the master slide.
Click a menu option to select it.
Click the Close Master View command to return to normal view.

Making Changes to All Slides (cont.)

To Change Text Color/Alignment on All Slides:

Select the View tab.
Click the Slide Master View command in the Presentation Views group. The Slide Master tab will appear active.
Select the slide master for all the slides, if it is not currently selected.
Select the text you wish to modify and format as you wish. In this example, we will change the title color and alignment.

Select the Home tab. The slide master and supporting layouts will remain in the slide task pane on the left because slide master view is the current view.
Click the Font Color command in the Font group.
Hover over each font option to display a live preview on the master slide.

Select a font color from the menu options. The font color change will appear on all the slides in the task pane on the left.

Click an alignment command to change the alignment of the selected text.

Click the Slide Show View or Normal View command at the bottom of the window to exit slide master view and see the changes in the presentation slides.

Select the Insert tab.
Click the Picture command in the Illustrations group. The Insert Picture dialog box will appear.

Locate the picture file on the computer.
Select the picture file.
Click Insert. The picture will appear on the slide master.

Click the picture and while holding down the mouse button, drag it to the desired location on the slide. Release the mouse button.

Click the Slide Show View or Normal View command at the bottom of the window to exit slide master view and see the changes in the presentation slides.

Pay attention to the tab that is active so you do not take unnecessary steps to accomplish a task. For example, if the Slide Master tab is active, just click the Close Master View command to return to normal view; however, if it isn't active, click the Normal View command at the bottom of the window.

Making Changes to Specific Layouts

In addition to changing design elements on all slides, you can change design elements on slides that use a specific layout. For example, you can apply different formatting to the Title and Content or Section Header layouts. By customizing specific slide layouts, you have more control over the slides and the presentation, as a whole.

To Change Font Color/Formatting on Slides with a Specific Layout:

Select the View tab.
Click the Slide Master View command in the Presentation Views group. The Slide Master tab will appear active.

Select the supporting layout you wish to change. In this example, we will select the section header layout in the task pane on the left.

Select the text you wish to modify on the slide. Now you can format as you wish. In this example, we will change the font color and add a text shadow.
Select the Home tab.
Click the Font Color command in the Font group.
Hover over each option to display a live preview on the master slide.
Select a font color from the menu options.

Click The Text Shadow command to add a shadow to the selected text.

Click Normal View to close the slide master view and see the section header slides that have been formatted.

Making Changes to Specific Layouts (cont.)

Click the Shape Outline command.
Choose color, weight, or line style option.

Click the Normal View command to close the slide master view and see the section header slides that have been formatted.

Press and hold the Shift key while you insert a straight line. This will make the line appear completely straight.

FINALIZE A PRESENTATION AND PACKAGE FOR CD

Each person will develop his or her own process for completing a PowerPoint presentation. For some people, this may involve reviewing the slides for typographical errors, using the Proofing tools, or viewing the slides in slide show view a final time to see all the slides with animations and transitions in place.

Slide Show Options

When finalizing, or completing a presentation, you may want to view the presentation in slide show view. This will allow you to see all the animations and transitions for each slide, and decide whether to make any changes to the slide show options.
