Instructions for PowerPoint
- Please save your presentation in PowerPoint 2013 or later (* ppt) or (* .pptx) so that we can guarantee the successful opening of your presentation on our computers.
- We recommend saving the presentation in PPTX format. Prepare a presentation in 16:9 format (screens in lecture rooms are in this ratio).
Pictures/Videos
- JPG is the most widely used format for “inserting” images into a presentation.
- GIF, TIF, or BMP formats are also acceptable.
- A resolution of up to 250 dpi is sufficient for the high-quality display of images during a presentation. Higher image resolution only increases file size and does not improve the resolution of the dots on the canvas. Please compress the saved images in the presentation to the recommended resolution.
- If you have a video stored in your presentation, please arrive well in advance to test it. The recommended video format is MP4.
Fonts
- Only fonts that are part of the basic MS-Windows installation will be available. Using other fonts may cause your presentation style to display incorrectly.
- Recommended fonts: Arial, Times New Roman, Tahoma, Calibri
- If you insist on using special fonts, you must save these fonts along with the presentation. Use the following procedure: Click on “tools” then “options” then “save” and check the box “Insert True Type fonts”, then save the presentation.
Transfer of Presentations and Storage
On what to bring a presentation
- Please bring your files and one of the media listed.
