Microsoft PowerPoint

Microsoft PowerPoint, aka PPT, is a powerful, easy-to-use presentation graphics software program that allows you to create professional-looking electronic slide shows.

Companies, teachers, students, and trainers can use the software to create compelling presentations and professional slideshows. It is part of the Microsoft Office suite, which includes other popular applications such as Microsoft Office Word, Excel, Access, and Outlook.

Microsoft PowerPoint allows you to build a chain of 4:3 screen pages (slides) in which objects, images, graphics, clipart, spreadsheets, animations, photos, text, videos, charts, media clips, and tables can be placed.

Need to project your presentations? It supports projecting presentations via a video projector, viewing them on a computer screen, printing them, and exporting them for viewing on a web page.

Microsoft PowerPoint contains custom templates for different types of presentations and can be modified. This allows you to get started fast and save time. You can also create, save and reuse your templates if you cannot find one that meets your needs.

Set different transition sequences between slides to make your presentation more entertaining. MS PowerPoint Slides move with a single mouse click or can also be set to change automatically.

There are essentially two types of transitions in PowerPoint. First, some transitions animate the transition from one slide to another. The second option animates the objects in the slides—such as images and texts.

You can set the animations to run automatically with a predefined time interval or to scroll manually according to the actions of a presenter. Being part of the Microsoft Office Suite makes it easy to integrate text and spreadsheets from Microsoft Word or Excel into a slide.

You can also build a complex chart in Excel and then import it into PowerPoint. This compatibility further enhances the effectiveness of a presentation, as you can place all your documents in one file.

PowerPoint also allows you to save your documents or presentations on OneDrive. This allows you to access your presentations on your computer, tablet, or phone. You can also ​​share your presentation with others on the web by sending them a link to the presentation.
