Download or read book Advanced Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007 written by Wayne Kao and published by Pearson Education. This book was released on 2007-12-27 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the only book that will help an intermediate PowerPoint user improve their skills to an advanced level. In doing so, they can benefit both professionally and personally. This is not a comprehensive book that will bore you with every detail of PowerPoint, but a guide to specific actions you can take to create the ultimate presentation. The book covers the powerful formatting engine new to PowerPoint 2007, and how it can be used for applying soft shadows, reflection, and glows to make a presentation look attractive. It also covers PowerPoint's new 3D engine. The book goes into deep technical detail about the Office 2007 theme engine and how color schemes, effect schemes, and font schemes work; as well as the new PowerPoint XML file format, showing you how to edit PowerPoint files without using PowerPoint at all. The authors walk through programming a macro and explain how to format shapes, diagrams, charts, text, tables with gradient and picture fills and different kinds of lines (e.g. a beveled compound line with a diamond arrowhead). Also covered are those all important slide show shortcuts that few people know about like -- seeing your private notes while presenting on a projector, starting the slide show from the current slide without fumbling through the user interface, and how to black out the slide show screen with one key press.
Download or read book Advanced PowerPoint written by Wei-Chieh Wayne Yu and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2018-11-14 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PowerPoint is a comprehensive software application that has a variety of uses beyond presentations because of its advanced features, flexibility, and coding capabilities. The many advanced features not presented in textbooks, combined with the VBA coding capability, make PowerPoint an excellent software application for developing more advanced and interactive presentations, training and instructional materials, games and apps. This book does not require users to have VBA coding experience. The coding needed to complete applications is gradually integrated, step-by-step, throughout the text. Users learn to write basic code, and to understand and modify more complex code, thus greatly expanding the capabilities of this media application. Most users already know PowerPoint; however, most of them have no idea of the capabilities of this software application, and do not see it as an application for more than presentations. This book provides instructions for using PowerPoint to create interactive presentations, instructional materials, games and apps.

Download or read book A Trainer s Guide to PowerPoint written by Mike Parkinson and published by Association for Talent Development. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn the Secrets Needed to Master PowerPoint for Training As a successful facilitator, you know the importance of the resources in your professional toolkit. How you engage your audience and improve learning can be affected by how well you use them. But mastery of PowerPoint evades many. Feedback on presentations can range from “What was the point?” to “That changed my life.” Most, though, fall closer to the former. If you are looking for a guide to the PowerPoint practices that will push your presentations into the latter category, look no further. A Trainer's Guide to PowerPoint: Best Practices for Master Presenters is Mike Parkinson's master class on the art of PowerPoint. While Parkinson wants you to understand how amazing a tool PowerPoint is, he's the first to tell you that there is no magic button to make awesome slides. There are, however, proven processes and tools that deliver successful PowerPoint content each and every time you use them. In this book he shares them, detailing his award-winning PowerPoint process and guiding you through three phases of presentation development—discover, design, and deliver. What's more, Parkinson is a Microsoft PowerPoint MVP—most valuable professional—an honorific bestowed by Microsoft on those with “very deep knowledge of Microsoft products and services.” He shares not only his tips and best practices for presentation success, but also those from several of his fellow MVPs. Parkinson invites you to master PowerPoint as a tool—just like a paintbrush and paint—and to realize that the tool doesn't make the art, you do.
