albums, complete with music narrations, to distribute
on CDs or DVDs. If you are in the sales field, it
involves just a few simple clicks to add anillustrative
chart of data or an organizational chart of your
company's structure. Make your presentation into
a web page for e-mailing purposes or as a promotion
displayed on your company's website.

5. .WHAT IS MICROSOFT POWERPOINT
USED FOR?
The main purpose of MS PowerPoint is to enable the user
to create dynamic, informational slides through the use of
text, graphics, and animation. Slide presentations created with
the software are often displayed on projection screens
for business, training, or educational presentations, although
they can be distributed as stand-alone files. Additionally, the
slides can be arranged and printed to PDF handouts for
reference.
6. NEW FEATURES
IN POWERPOINT 2010
With Microsoft PowerPoint, you can make charts,
tables, and macros, and insert images, audio, video, and
other multimedia files. With the new release of
Microsoft Office 2010, many advanced features were
added in PowerPoint 2010. Below list several new
features in PowerPoint 2010 for your reference.
7. EMBED AND EDIT VIDEO
FROM WITHIN
POWERPOINT
Now you can add fades, formatting effects, bookmark
scenes, and trim videos to give your presentations a
professional multimedia experience. And since the
embedded videos become part of your PowerPoint
presentation, you don’t have to manage additional files
when sharing with others.
8. USE NEW AND IMPROVED
PICTURE EDITING TOOLS
You can use picture editing tools including versatile
artistic effects and advanced correction, color, and
cropping tools, to fine-tune every picture in your
presentation to look its absolute best. Even, dynamic 3-
D slide transitions and more realistic animation effects
can be added to grab your audience’s attention.
9. WORK TOGETHER MORE
SUCCESSFULLY
If you are one of the many people who work with others
on presentations and projects, PowerPoint 2010 is the
perfect tool for you. The new added co-authoring
capabilities to edit the same presentation allows you to
work with people in different locations at the same time.
You can even communicate as you work, directly from
PowerPoint
10. AC C E S S A N D S H A R E YO U R
C O N T E N T F RO M M O R E P L AC E S
Your ideas, deadlines, projects, and work emergencies
don’t always occur conveniently when you are at your
desk. Fortunately, you now have the power to get things
done when and where you need to, from the Web with
Microsoft PowerPoint Web App or even from your
smartphone with Microsoft PowerPoint Mobile.
11. CREATE A SLIDE SHOW
When beginning a new slide show, PowerPoint provides an array of
templates to choose from. Experienced users with a specific look in mind can
start with a blank presentation for setting attributes, such as colors and fonts,
to their own specifications. After creating the initial file, the next step is to
create a slide, which can be done by using an auto layout, or a blank screen
in order to add components manually. You can then choose to add a
combination of text and graphics to suit the needs of the presentation, and
apply animation to either of these elements to create a dynamic effect. You
can add as many slides and make them as content-rich as your system can
handle; there are no limits imposed in the software itself.
13. " S E L E C T O R C R E AT E YO U R
OW N T H E M E "
Themes are the evolution of design templates in
PowerPoint, but they're also much more than that. A
theme is a coordinated set of fonts, colors, and graphic
effects that you can apply to your entire document with
just a click. In PowerPoint, the theme also includes the
slide master and slide layouts.
14. "USE VIDEO AND AUDIO TO
CONVEY YOUR MESSAGE
MORE EFFECTIVELY"
Dynamic content, such as a brief video that illustrates an
important point, is a great way to engage your audience. Using
audio that helps convey your message can also help you keep
your slides clean and approachable. In PowerPoint 2010,
video you insert from your files is now embedded by default,
so you don't have to include multiple files when sharing your
presentation electronically.
15. "USE GRAPHICS TO
EMPHASIZE KEY POINTS"
A well-chosen chart or diagram can often convey much
more to your audience than boring bulleted text.
Fortunately, creating charts and graphics has never been
easier. In Office 2010, Office graphics coordinate
automatically with the active theme in your presentation
16. "USE ANIMATIONS AND
TRANSITIONS WISELY"
Animation effects in PowerPoint 2010 are improved to
provide more realistic movement. You can also trigger the
animation of an object to begin when you reach a specific
point in the playback of audio or video content on your slide.
Customize, preview, and apply animations directly from
the Animations tab in PowerPoint 2010
17. "USE MASTERS AND LAYOUTS
TO SAVE TIME AND GET
BETTER RESULTS"
The slide master is one of the most important tools in
PowerPoint for creating easy-to-use, great-looking
presentations. The master gives you a central place to
add content and formatting that you want to appear on
all (or most) of your slides.
18. "USE NOTES PAGES AND
HANDOUTS TO HELP
DELIVER THE STORY"
Use the Notes pane that appears below the slide in Normal
view to write notes to yourself for your presentation or to
create notes that you can print for your viewers instead of
crowding your slides with too much text. You can also format
and print handouts that contain up to nine slides per page.
