4. As we mentioned in a previous presentation
about Office 2013, Microsoft has moved the
venerable productivity suite into the cloud.

5. They have also made significant upgrades and
improvements to each of the Office components for which
they are justifiably admired.

6. In this presentation we
will look at the changes
made to PowerPoint for
2013.

collaborate, and make more
powerful presentations?

things and more.

variations, as well as video integration,
enhanced imaging and new shapes, you

presentations that will knock the sox off of
the competition

variations on your themes with
alternative color schemes and
shapes, then apply the look

your presentation, while keeping your
audience engaged.

exactly where you want it by zooming in on a
diagram, chart, or graphic with a couple of clicks,
and then back zoom out just as smoothly.

sequence or out – from a grid that only you
see.

selected for them to see.

readily see who replied to whom, and when.

editing and viewing
