 1) Introduction
Microsoft PowerPoint is a slide show presentation program currently developed by Microsoft.
Forethought Inc. created PowerPoint’s predecessor “Presenter”. PowerPoint officially launched
on May 22, 1990, as a part of the Microsoft Office suite. PowerPoint is useful for helping
develop the slide-based presentation format, and is currently one of the most commonly used
presentation programs available.
PowerPoint provides numerous features that offer flexibility and the ability to create a
professional presentation. One of the features provides the ability to create a presentation that
includes music, which plays throughout the entire presentation or sound effects for particular
slides. In addition to the ability to add sound files, the presentation can be design to run, like a
movie, on its own. PowerPoint allows the user to record the slide show with narration and a laser
pointer. The user may customize slide shows to show the slides in a different order than
originally designed and to have slides appear multiple times. Microsoft also offers the ability to
broadcast the presentation to specific users via a link and Windows Live.

of your slide show with hidden or rearranged slides.

spotlight.
