WORKING WITH POWERPOINT

Discussion

Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 is a presentation graphics program that produces

dynamic and powerful slide shows containing movies, sounds, text, graphics, charts,

and SmartArt. You can use PowerPoint for formal and informal presentations and

meetings, as well as for presentations on the Internet.

Whether you are presenting an idea, plan, or complex report to a group, you can use

PowerPoint to combine essential data, dramatic illustrations, animation, special

effects, and timed sequences that convey your important points in an informative and

convincing visual presentation.

PowerPoint incorporates a wide variety of tools and features for selecting fonts,

formats, styles, colors, and themes. You can import documents from word processing

programs or worksheets and charts from spreadsheet applications as well as creating

text, tables and charts directly in PowerPoint. For example, in a presentation designed

to show your company's financial performance, you could import a previously created

list of assets from Microsoft Word and a graph illustrating stock performance from

Microsoft Excel. Alternatively you could create a bullet pointed list, table of data and

associated chart using PowerPoint and its integration with the other applications in

the Office 2007 suite.

You can use illustrations from clip art libraries or picture files, as well as movies and

sounds from the clip organizer, files or CDs. There are galleries of predefined shapes,

WordArt and SmartArt objects and you could even create a Photo Album from a

collection of digital photographs.

The new user interface in PowerPoint 2007 makes creating, presenting, and sharing

presentations simpler and more intuitive. With use of the new Ribbon, tabs, and

galleries, PowerPoint 2007 groups common tasks together in the same place. For

instance the tools for inserting pictures, clip art, shapes, SmartArt, and charts are

placed together in the Illustrations group on the Insert tab.

Formatting and consistency are made easier through contextual tabs and task panes.

Contextual tabs appear in the Ribbon when objects in the slides are selected. For

instance when a text box is selected, the Drawing Tools Format tab appears in the

ribbon to display relevant tools such as Shape Fill, Shape Outline, Shape Effects, and

WordArt styles. Task panes are also used to provide the tools and links to perform

common tasks in PowerPoint. The Office Clipboard and Clip Art now appear in a

task pane.

In addition to slide layout options, animation effects, and design templates, you can

also create and apply multiple slide and title masters.

Page 13: Power point 2007 level 1

PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1 Lesson 1 - Exploring PowerPoint

Villanova UNIT Training© Page 3

Themes allow a consistent look and feel to be applied to the presentation, applying a

common background, font style and layout throughout the presentation with a single

operation.

You can get help on a PowerPoint task or feature using the PowerPoint Help

window which can be launched using the help button from the parent PowerPoint

windows or in a context sensitive manner from child windows. The PowerPoint Help

window can search both online and offline sources to provide assistance and training,

and answer your questions. PowerPoint also provides tutorials for online instruction,

predesigned templates for popular types of presentations, and additional templates are

available to download from the Internet.

With employees and consultants spread across the world, workers need tools to

collaborate on joint projects. To address this issue, PowerPoint now provides many

new features for reviewing and sharing presentations, such as Document

Workspaces. PowerPoint also helps you package a presentation for a CD.

STARTING POWERPOINT

Discussion

When Microsoft Office 2007 is installed, it creates a Microsoft Office submenu in

your All Programs menu of the start menu. The submenu contains the shortcuts to all

of your Office applications. You can open Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 by selecting it

from this menu.

When the program starts, a brief splash screen appears, and then the application

window opens.

To display a shortcut to PowerPoint on your desktop, open

the Microsoft Office menu from the All Programs menu of

the start menu, right-click Microsoft Office PowerPoint

2007, point to Send To and select the Desktop (create

shortcut) command.

In Windows XP or Windows Vista, if you have previously

opened PowerPoint, it may appear in the Recently Used

Programs list, which displays when you click the start

button. To ensure PowerPoint doesn‟t scroll off of the

Recently Used Programs list, you can pin its shortcut to the

list by right-clicking Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007,

either from the Recently Used Programs list or the Microsoft

Office menu, and selecting the Pin To Start menu command.

Page 14: Power point 2007 level 1

Lesson 1 - Exploring PowerPoint PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1

Page 4 Villanova UNIT Training©

The first time you open PowerPoint after installation, the

Privacy Options window may appear. From this screen you

can choose whether Office can download help content from

the Internet when online, whether Office can periodically

download a file that helps track and solve program crashes and

whether you wish to sign up to the Microsoft Customer

Experience Improvement Program. The Privacy Options

screen also gives you the option to keep Office up to date with

the Microsoft Update service. Once the Privacy Options

window has been completed the User Name dialog box may

appear. You can enter your name and initials as necessary and

then select OK.

USING THE POWERPOINT INTERFACE

Discussion

When PowerPoint starts, the application window opens. The application window

contains the following elements:

The Titlebar: can be used to move the window around the screen if it is

not maximized, it also displays the name of the active presentation. The

Titlebar appears across the top of the window.

The Office button: contains commands to open, save, print, prepare,

send, publish and close existing presentations as well as creating a new

presentation. The Office button appears at the top left-hand corner of the

window.

The Ribbon: comprises a band of functional tabs across the top of the

screen, underneath the Titlebar, that collate common features together

within the tabs using groups and galleries to create a more intuitive

interface and simplify the creation of a presentation.

The Quick Access Toolbar: is a quick and easy way of accessing some

of an application‟s regularly used features, the toolbar can be

customized to add and remove commands. The Quick Access Toolbar

appears to the right of the Office button.

The Minimize button: collapses the window down to a bar on the

taskbar of the desktop. It is the left-hand button of the three buttons at

the top right corner of the window.

The Maximize/Restore button: toggles the window between maximized

to full screen and reduced to a windowed size (not full screen). This

button is the middle button of the three buttons at the top right corner of

the window.

The Close button: closes the application. If you have presentations open

that have unsaved changes, you will be prompted to save them. The

close button is the right-hand button of the three buttons at the top right

corner of the window.

The Work area: is where the active presentation appears. The first time

you open PowerPoint 2007 the work area contains a blank presentation

with a single slide.

The Status bar: appears across the bottom of the window and provides

information about the active presentation as well as containing shortcuts

for changing the view and a zoom slidebar.

USING THE MICROSOFT OFFICE BUTTON

Discussion

The new look Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 brings with it many changes. Most of

these changes refer to the navigational aspects of the application and the new and

improved user interface. PowerPoint 2007, along with other Microsoft Office

applications, has moved away from the complex menu system and has arranged

features and commands according to their use and their place in the order of creating a

presentation. One thing that does remain the same, however, is the file menu.

Although it is no longer called the file menu, the commands that have been available

in previous editions are still available in PowerPoint 2007 albeit through the new

Microsoft Office Button. The Office Button, a large round icon located in the top

left hand corner of the screen, is the heart of all the new Microsoft Office applications

and, among others, includes all the traditional features such as New, Open, Save,

Print, and Close. New commands to appear in this menu are Prepare and Publish.

The Microsoft Office Button offers consistency across the Microsoft Office 2007

suite.

The Microsoft Office button

You cannot customize what appears in the Office Button

menu. However, regularly used commands can be added to

the Quick Access Toolbar for easy access.

Page 17: Power point 2007 level 1

PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1 Lesson 1 - Exploring PowerPoint

Villanova UNIT Training© Page 7

USING THE RIBBON

Discussion

In place of the old menu systems in previous editions, Microsoft has introduced the

Ribbon. The Ribbon comprises a band of functional tabs across the top of the screen.

The order in which these tabs appear across the Ribbon are designed to follow the

flow of creating a presentation, thus enabling a straightforward and logical order to

presentation construction. These tabs act as menus and display the relevant commands

relating to that tab. The tabs available across the Ribbon include the Home tab,

Insert tab, Design tab, Animations tab, Slide Show tab, Review tab, and View tab.

The Ribbon

You can choose to minimize the Ribbon to show just the tab

titles by right clicking on the Ribbon and selecting Minimize

the Ribbon.

WORKING WITH GROUPS

Discussion

In PowerPoint 2007 the graphical tabs serve as the menu list for a range of activities.

When selected from the Ribbon a tab displays a range of Groups. These Groups

categorize Commands according to their function. Below is a brief guide to the

Groups and Commands you will find on each of the tabs in PowerPoint 2007:

Home tab - here you will find basic commands such as New Slide and

Text formatting commands.

Insert tab - these Groups allow you to insert various objects into a slide

such as tables, pictures, diagrams, charts, text, movies and sound.

Design tab - gives you the tools you need to customize the appearance

of your presentation slides.

Animations tab - allows you to add a variety of animations and

transitions to your slides.

Page 18: Power point 2007 level 1

Lesson 1 - Exploring PowerPoint PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1

Page 8 Villanova UNIT Training©

Slide Show tab - these Groups aim to help you rehearse your

presentation.

Review tab - here you can check the Spelling in your presentation as

well as add comments and annotation to slides.

View tab - offers you a variety of ways to view your slides from Notes

Master to Black and White or Grayscale.

The Groups

You cannot customize the Groups or Commands that appear

on a tab but you can add regularly used commands to your

Quick Access Toolbar for easy access.

WORKING WITH THE CONTEXTUAL TABS

Discussion

In addition to the standard tabs that appear along the Ribbon there are Contextual

Tabs that appear and disappear as you use various commands. These Contextual

Tabs contain special formatting tools for items like tables and graphics. When you

have inserted a picture, table, chart or SmartArt object for example, the Contextual

Tabs will appear on the right hand side of the Ribbon and will be highlighted with a

different color to the rest of the tabs. When you have finished working on the selected

item these tabs will automatically disappear.

A Contextual tab

If you want to return to an inserted object and continue

formatting using the Contextual Tabs, simply select the

object and the Contextual Tabs will appear on the Ribbon.

Page 19: Power point 2007 level 1

PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1 Lesson 1 - Exploring PowerPoint

Villanova UNIT Training© Page 9

WORKING WITH THE GALLERIES

Discussion

While some buttons in the Ribbon immediately apply a command, such as the Bold

button, other buttons offer a large range of choices. When you see a button with a

down-pointing arrow, it indicates that the button offers several options. Generally,

clicking this type of button displays a Gallery, although some buttons display just a

menu, while others show both a gallery and a menu.

A Gallery is a graphic display of the options available from the button.

A Gallery

WORKING WITH QUICK STYLES

Discussion

Office 2007 also has a special type of gallery on some of the tabs known as a Quick

Style gallery. You can recognize a Quick Style gallery by the fact it displays several

options directly on the Ribbon and has three arrows on the right-hand side of the

button.

Page 20: Power point 2007 level 1

Lesson 1 - Exploring PowerPoint PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1

Page 10 Villanova UNIT Training©

The top two arrows on the right-hand side are scroll buttons that let you see the other

options in the Quick Style gallery without having to display the whole gallery at one

time.

The third arrow, the one with the line above it, is known as the More arrow. When

you click the More arrow, the whole gallery is displayed.

A Quick Style button

USING THE QUICK ACCESS TOOLBAR

Discussion

The Quick Access Toolbar is a feature that is present throughout Microsoft Office

2007. It appears at the top left of the screen alongside the Office button. It is a quick

and easy way to access some of an application‟s regularly used features without using

the Ribbon or Tabs. You can choose to display the Quick Access Toolbar below the

Ribbon, if you prefer.

Discussion

The Quick Access Toolbar has three commands by default; Save, Undo, and Redo.

However, you may find that there are other commands that you use frequently and

wish to add to the Quick Access Toolbar. You may want to remove some commands

that you find less useful.

can be used to format the selected text. If you move the mouse pointer away from the

Mini toolbar, it fades away.

The Mini Toolbar

You cannot customize the Mini toolbar.

USING LIVE PREVIEW

Discussion

The Live Preview feature is a particularly useful tool to try out different styles,

effects, and colors. The Live Preview feature allows you to visualize effects before

applying them. To see a change in your presentation, hover the mouse pointer over the

thumbnail images or list items in the galleries.

The Live Preview feature will temporarily display the changes to the selected object.

When you finish previewing the styles, click to select your preferred option.

EXITING POWERPOINT

Discussion

When you have finished using PowerPoint, you should exit the application properly,

since PowerPoint performs necessary housekeeping before it closes.

If the current presentation has been modified but not saved, a PowerPoint dialog box

prompts you to save changes before exiting.

If only one presentation is open, you can also click the Close

button on the far right of the application window title bar to

exit PowerPoint. When more than one presentation is open,

each presentation appears in a separate window and the Close

ENTERING TEXT INTO A PRESENTATION

Discussion

When you open PowerPoint, a blank presentation containing a single slide, based on

the Title Slide layout, appears in the application window. There are several different

layouts available which provide placeholders for inserting content into your slides.

Most slide layouts provide placeholders for entering text. Text placeholders determine

the placement of text on the page and are formatted with the font style and size

defined for each slide layout. For example, on the default Title Slide layout, you can

add title text into the title placeholder and a subtitle into the subtitle placeholder. The

prompt text appears in the placeholder until you type your desired text. If you do not

enter any text, the placeholder text remains on the screen but is not displayed when

you play the slideshow or print it.

You can start typing text in this first slide by entering the text directly into the

placeholders or you can select a different layout. When you click the text in a

placeholder, PowerPoint switches to edit mode. The placeholder appears with

hatched borders with sizing handles (white circles), a rotate handle (green circle) and

the insertion point appears in the placeholder.

SAVING A NEW PRESENTATION

Discussion

After creating a new presentation you can save it to disk so that you can retrieve it at

another time.

When you save a presentation for the first time, PowerPoint opens the Save As dialog

box, into which you enter the desired file name and location. A file name can consist

of multiple words (up to 255 characters) and should be descriptive enough for you to

recognize its contents. The following characters cannot be used in file names: forward

Page 30: Power point 2007 level 1

Lesson 2 - Using Basic Presentation Skills PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1

Page 20 Villanova UNIT Training©

slash (/), backslash (\), greater than symbol (>), less than symbol (<), asterisk (*),

quotation marks (“,”), question marks (?), pipe symbol ( | ), colon (:), or

semicolon (;). PowerPoint automatically assigns the .pptx extension when you save a

file for the first time.

If you are using Windows 2000 or XP, the default folder for saving presentations is

the My Documents folder. If you want to save the presentation in a different drive or

folder, you can use the Save in list to select the desired location. The folders and files

residing in the selected location appear in the list box below the Save in box. The My

Places bar on the left side of the Save As dialog box contains shortcuts to various

folders and can be used to quickly select these folders. The Save As dialog box can be

resized to suit your needs.

If you are using Windows Vista, the default folder for saving presentations is the

Documents folder in the current users profile. If you want to save the presentation in

a different drive or folder, you can use the Address bar to select the desired location.

Clicking the double arrow (<<) at the left end of the Address bar displays a list of the

available drives and most common folders. By default, Windows Vista presents a

compact Save As dialog box which doesn‟t display the existing contents of the current

location. However, this can be expanded using the Browse Folders arrow in the

bottom left corner. In the expanded Save As dialog box, the folders and files residing

in the selected location appear in the list box below the Address bar. The Favorite

Links list on the left side of the Save As dialog box contains shortcuts to various

folders and can be used to quickly select these folders. In addition, there is a Folders

list below the Favorite Links list that can be expanded to navigate the full list of

drives and folders.

Once a presentation has been saved, its file name appears in the application title bar

and subsequent saves do not display the Save As dialog box; instead, PowerPoint

updates the changes to the existing file each time you save the presentation.

The Save As dialog box

Page 31: Power point 2007 level 1

PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1 Lesson 2 - Using Basic Presentation Skills

Villanova UNIT Training© Page 21

Depending upon your Windows settings, file extensions may

or may not appear in the Save As or Open dialog boxes. This

setting is controlled by opening the Folder Options dialog box,

selecting the View tab, and selecting or deselecting the Hide

file extensions for known file types option. The Folder

Options dialog box is accessible from the Control Panel.

If you save a presentation with a file name that already exists

in the same location, you will be prompted to confirm that you

want the new file to replace the existing one.

You can also save a new presentation by selecting the Office

button and then the Save or Save As command.

The default file extension for PowerPoint 2007 files is .pptx,

this file format cannot be opened in previous versions of

PowerPoint. If you need to share your presentation files with

others using previous versions of PowerPoint you should

save your work as the PowerPoint 97-2003 Presentation

type.

CLOSING A PRESENTATION

Discussion

When you have finished working on a presentation you can close it to remove it from

the application window.

If you close a presentation without saving the most recent changes, PowerPoint

prompts you to save it. You can choose to save the changes made to the presentation,

or you can close the presentation without saving the changes.

The Close command

You can also close an open presentation by clicking the Close

Window button on the right side of the window.

The PowerPoint AutoRecover feature, available on the Save

page in the PowerPoint Options dialog box, saves a temporary

file at timed intervals. In this way, you can retrieve changes

made to a presentation if PowerPoint exits without saving

them (e.g. due to a power failure or similar problem).

When you have multiple presentations open, each presentation

appears in its own application window and as a button on the

taskbar.

OPENING AN EXISTING PRESENTATION

Discussion

You can view or edit an existing presentation by opening it from disk. You do not

need to remember the file name, because the Open dialog box displays a list of folders

and files in the current drive and folder. You can select the desired presentation from

the list, or you can type the name of the presentation you want to open.

If the presentation resides in a different drive or folder, you can use the Look in list in

Windows XP or the Address bar in Windows Vista to select the correct location.

The folders and files residing in the selected location appear in the list box below the

Look in box in Windows XP (below the Address bar in Windows Vista). You can

resize the Open dialog box to view more of its contents.

When using Windows XP, in addition to using the Look in list to open a folder, the

Open dialog box contains a My Places bar on the left side of the dialog box that

contains shortcuts to various folders or to the desktop.

When using Windows Vista, the Favorite Links list on the left side of the Open

dialog box contains shortcuts to various folders and can be used to quickly select these

folders. In addition, there is a Folders list below the Favorite Links list that can be

used to navigate the full list of drives and folders.

While the Open button opens the selected presentation, the Open list provides

additional options. For instance, if you want to protect the original version of a

presentation from modifications, you can open a copy of the presentation or open the

presentation as read-only.

In Windows XP, the Files of type list lets you open a file created in another program,

such as an outline created in Word. In Windows Vista, the Files of type list now

Page 37: Power point 2007 level 1

PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1 Lesson 2 - Using Basic Presentation Skills

Villanova UNIT Training© Page 27

displays as a button above the Open button; clicking the button lets you choose which

types of file to display.

When using Windows XP, the Views button at the top of the Open dialog box allows

you to select one of eight views: Thumbnails, Tiles, Icons, List, Details, Properties,

Preview, or WebView. The Thumbnails view displays a miniature image of

supported graphic and HTML files.

When using Windows Vista, the Views button at the top of the Open dialog box,

underneath the Address bar, allows you to select one of seven views: Extra Large

Icons, Large Icons, Medium Icons, Small Icons, List, Details, and Tiles. The Extra

Large Icons, Large Icons, and Medium Icons views display thumbnails of

supported files in various sizes.

In both Windows XP and Windows Vista, you can change views using the Views list

or by repeatedly clicking the Views button to cycle through the available views.

You can also have more than one presentation open at a time. Each presentation opens

in a separate Application Window.

Opening an existing presentation

You can also add the Open command to the Quick Access

Toolbar.

PowerPoint displays the names of the most recently opened

ADDING A NEW SLIDE

Discussion

You can use the New Slide button to add additional slides to a presentation.

PowerPoint automatically inserts a new slide with a Title and Content layout after

the current slide. You can use the layout gallery in the slides group of the Home tab to

change the layout of the newly added slide.

PowerPoint provides nine layouts by default in the Layout gallery. A slide layout is a

predefined arrangement of placeholders for inserting titles, body text, and content

objects.

All layouts, apart from the Blank layout, provide one or more placeholders for text.

The Title and Content, Two Content, Comparison, and Content with Caption

layouts also provide placeholders for inserting content objects (Tables, Charts,

SmartArt Graphics, Pictures, Clip Art or Media Clips). The Picture with Caption

layout provides a placeholder for inserting a Picture together with two Text

placeholders.

Each content placeholder contains a link to insert the designated content object type,

so that you do not have to search for the command that inserts the object.

Although preset slide layouts make it easy to create an arrangement of text and

objects, you can insert text and objects anywhere on a slide. You can even select a

blank layout, which contains no placeholders, and create your own layout.

CREATING A CUSTOM LAYOUT

Discussion

When you open PowerPoint 2007 or create a new blank presentation, a single slide

based on the Title Slide layout appears. There are nine predefined layouts available.

Each layout contains Placeholders to indicate where content appears on a slide and to

assist with adding different types of content. A collection of layouts is called a Slide

Master. You can create your own custom layouts which are added to the standard

layouts in the Slide Master for the current presentation. Once you have created a

custom layout, you can use it for as many slides in the presentation as you require.

You create a new custom layout by adding Placeholders at the size and position you

require. There are different types of Placeholders for inserting Text, Pictures,

Charts, Tables, SmartArt Graphics, Media Clips or Clip Art. There is also a

special type of Placeholder called Content which can be used to add any kind of

content.

Creating a custom layout

Clicking the bottom part of the Insert Placeholders button

lets you select the type of Placeholder you wish to add.

Clicking the top part of the button inserts another Placeholder

of the same type.

APPLYING A THEME

Discussion

Each new blank presentation that you create is based on the Office Theme, which has

a plain background and simple font styles and colors. You can quickly change the

appearance of all your slides by selecting a different theme.

You can use themes to ensure consistency in your presentations. A theme applies

colors, fonts, styles, and effects to all the slides in your presentation. Themes are a

useful way of applying a corporate standard to your presentation as they can be used

to create matching documents throughout the Microsoft Office 2007 suite.

Applying a theme to a slide

You can edit themes to change color, font, and effects using

the Color, Fonts, and Effects buttons in the Themes gallery.

You can roll the mouse pointer over the thumbnails of the

themes in the gallery to display the name of each theme.

APPLYING A BACKGROUND STYLE

Discussion

Every theme (including the default plain Office Theme) has a variety of Background

Styles available. Selecting a different Background Style changes the appearance of

the background of your presentation without changing the set of colors, text fonts and

styles used by the theme. The Background Styles vary in intensity ranging from very

light to very intense and are based on the set of colors used in each theme; if you

apply a different theme, the set of Background Styles available also changes.

CHANGING THE MAGNIFICATION

Discussion

You can magnify a presentation to make it easier to read, or you can reduce the

magnification in order to see more of the presentation. In a view containing more than

one pane, you must first select the pane for which you want to change the

magnification.

The magnification level can be set to a percentage of the actual size, or you can

choose to view the entire width of the page. Changing the magnification does not

change the presentation; it only changes how the presentation appears on the screen.

Changing the magnification

You can also use the Zoom slider at the right-hand end of the

Status Bar to adjust the zoom level.

A quick way to display the slide so that it fits the window of

the main slide editing pane is to click the Fit to Window

button, next to the Zoom button in the Zoom group on the

View tab.

ADDING SPEAKER NOTES

Discussion

You can add speaker notes to each slide you create. Speaker notes can be helpful to

highlight major points in your presentation.

Speaker notes can be added to the notes pane in Normal view. The notes pane appears

below the slide pane. If you add multiple lines to the notes pane, you can either scroll

the pane or enlarge it by dragging the splitter bar up.

You can also work with notes in Notes Page view. This view displays a copy of the

slide and provides a larger notes box in which you can create, edit, or view notes. You

can print notes pages to use as you rehearse or deliver your presentation.

Both the notes pane and notes box allow you to use common word processing

features, such as word-wrap, bold or italic formatting, font or font size modification,

and bulleted text.

Lesson 4 - Using the Outline Tab PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1

Page 54 Villanova UNIT Training©

WORKING WITH THE OUTLINE TAB

Discussion

When you are creating a presentation, entering text in an outline format allows you to

concentrate on the content. The presentation outline appears when you click the

Outline tab in the tabs pane at the left-hand side of the program window. You can

enter presentation text and see the formatted slide in Normal view at the same time.

Since most presentations list highlights instead of full explanations, the outline is an

effective way of organizing your thoughts.

The Outline tab displays a presentation in the form of a classic outline, consisting of

separate lines for the heading and associated body text of each slide. Text can be

indented to one of five levels. Level one is the highest (heading) level.

You create a presentation in the same way you would create an outline, by typing the

headings and indenting the associated body text. Pressing the [Enter] key after typing

text inserts a new line at the same level. Therefore, pressing the [Enter] key after

typing level 1 (heading) text inserts a new slide into the presentation, and pressing the

[Enter] key after typing level 2 text inserts a new line at level 2 of the same slide.

As you add text to a presentation outline, you can change text levels as you type.

Changing the level of the current line is called promoting or demoting the line.

Promoting and demoting text can change the structure of your presentation. For

instance, demoting level 1 (heading) text demotes the slide to body text on the

previous slide.

COLLAPSING AND EXPANDING SLIDES

Discussion

One of the advantages of working with an outline is the ability to expand and collapse

it. A collapsed outline allows you to see the flow of ideas more easily, since you only

see the titles of each slide. You can also collapse all slides except for the current slide.

This option leaves more of the screen available.

You can choose to collapse the entire outline and view only the titles of each slide to

check for continuity, or you can collapse specific slides. You can also expand the

entire outline to view all the body text, or you can expand only specific slides as you

work with them.

PowerPoint provides a few tools that make it easier to work with the presentation

outline. One tool is the splitter bar (the vertical border between the tabs pane and the

slide pane). You can drag the splitter bar to adjust the size of the tabs pane. Increasing

the size of the tabs pane makes it easier to read longer lines.

Collapsing slides

When an outline is collapsed, a gray line appears under the

title of each slide that contains hidden text.

DEMOTING AND PROMOTING TEXT LINES

Discussion

PowerPoint provides nine levels of indentation for the body text on a slide. Level 1

has the smallest indent, and level 9 has the largest.

When you want to place less emphasis on an item, you can demote it. When you

demote an item, the indentation increases. When you want to place more emphasis on

an item, you can promote it. When you promote an item, the indentation decreases.

The Show Text Formatting option in the Outline menu (displayed when you right-

click in the Outline tab) lets you display the text formatting in the outline. When text

formatting is displayed, level 1 text has the largest font size, decreasing in steps to

level 4. The font size for level 4 to level 9 text is the same.

MOVING/COPYING TEXT BETWEEN SLIDES

Discussion

When editing a presentation, you may want to move or copy text, either within the

same presentation or between presentations.

When you move text, the text is removed from its original location and placed into the

new location. The Cut and Paste features make it easy to move text.

If you want to duplicate text in another location, you can copy the text rather than

retype it. To duplicate text, you can use the Copy and Paste features. The Copy

feature is similar to the Cut feature, except that the Copy feature does not remove the

text from the original location.

When moving or copying text using the Cut, Copy, and Paste features, PowerPoint

automatically adds or removes spaces as needed, provided that the Use smart cut and

paste option has been enabled in the Advanced section in PowerPoint Options.

Cut or copied text is placed on the Clipboard. When you paste, the most recent item

cut or copied is retrieved from the Clipboard and pasted into the selected location. If

you do not select a placeholder into which to paste the text, it is pasted into a new

placeholder in the center of the current slide and adopts the default text formats. If you

need to cut, copy, and paste multiple items, you can use the Clipboard Task Pane.

After an item has been pasted, the Paste Options button may appear in the slide next

to the pasted text. You can use Paste Options to choose whether source or destination

formatting should be applied, or you can press the [Esc] key to hide the button.

FINDING AND REPLACING TEXT

Discussion

In PowerPoint, you can find a word or phrase and replace it with another word or

phrase. You can replace all occurrences of the text or just the current occurrence. The

Page 97: Power point 2007 level 1

PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1 Lesson 5 - Editing and Proofing Text

Villanova UNIT Training© Page 87

Replace feature saves time, because you do not have to manually find each occurrence

and type the replacement text. For example, you could replace all occurrences of the

word growth with the word development throughout a presentation.

In the Replace dialog box, you can also use the Match case option to indicate that

you want to find text that matches the characters in the Find what box exactly,

including uppercase and lowercase. In addition, you can use the Find whole words

only option, which ignores text if it appears as part of another word. For example, if

the search text is inform, PowerPoint identifies only the word inform and not words

containing inform (such as informed, information, informative, or uninformed).

Replacing text

You can also replace all occurrences of a specific font by

selecting the arrow on the right-hand part of the Replace

button and choosing Replace Fonts from the Replace menu.

CHECKING SPELLING AS YOU TYPE

Discussion

In order to help you check your PowerPoint presentations for errors in spelling,

PowerPoint includes a Spelling feature. This feature works in two ways. One way is

to automatically check spelling as you enter text. This method is enabled by default.

Another way to check spelling in a presentation is to invoke the spelling checker after

the presentation has been created. Both methods find the same errors.

The Check spelling as you type feature examines the words in a presentation and

compares them to the words found in the main dictionary. When a word is found that

is not in the main dictionary, a single, red, wavy line appears beneath the word. You

can ignore the underline and continue typing, or you can right-click the identified text

and select one of the suggestions or commands on the shortcut menu. If the correct

spelling is not present, you can edit the error in the presentation or open the Spelling

dialog box.

You can quickly move to the next spelling error by clicking the Spelling Status icon

on the status bar. This icon, which resembles an open book, displays an X when

additional errors are present in a presentation. The Spelling Status icon, however, is

only visible if the Check spelling as you type option has been enabled. You can

Page 100: Power point 2007 level 1

Lesson 5 - Editing and Proofing Text PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1

Page 90 Villanova UNIT Training©

enable or disable spelling options in the Proofing section in the PowerPoint Options

dialog box.

Correcting a spelling error

In order to check spelling automatically as you type, the

Check spelling as you type option in the Proofing section in

the PowerPoint Options dialog box must be enabled. The Hide

spelling errors option must also be deselected for the red,

wavy lines to appear.

You do not need to correct misspellings immediately as they

occur. You can correct them at any time.

The red, wavy lines generated by the spelling checker only

appear on the screen; they are not displayed in the slideshow

or printed with the presentation.

Procedures

1. Right-click text that appears with a single, red, wavy line beneath it.

2. Select a suggested replacement or a spelling command.

Page 101: Power point 2007 level 1

RUNNING THE SPELLING CHECKER

Discussion

You can invoke the spelling checker to spell check a presentation. The spelling

checker checks the entire presentation, even if you start it in the middle of the

Page 102: Power point 2007 level 1

Lesson 5 - Editing and Proofing Text PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1

Page 92 Villanova UNIT Training©

presentation. You can run the spelling checker from the Review tab. The spelling

checker starts in the slide containing the insertion point. The notes pane is

automatically included in the spell check.

A word identified as misspelled appears in the Spelling dialog box, with possible

corrections listed in the Suggestions list box. There may be several alternatives when

a word is identified as incorrect. You can select the correct spelling of the word in the

Suggestions list box and use the Change or Change All button to change just the

current occurrence or to change all occurrences of the misspelled word. If PowerPoint

does not list any entries in the Suggestions list box, you can try using the Suggest

button to see if any words match the identified word. However, if the Suggestions list

box does not contain the correct spelling, you can type the correct spelling directly

into the Change to box in the Spelling dialog box. If the word is correct, you can use

the Ignore Once or Ignore All button to disregard just the current occurrence or all

occurrences of the error. Another alternative for a correctly spelled word (such as a

company name or technical term) is to use the Add button to add the word to the

custom dictionary.

Running the spelling checker

Page 103: Power point 2007 level 1

You can edit the custom dictionary in PowerPoint, by

clicking the Options button in the Spelling dialog box to

display the Proofing section in the PowerPoint Options dialog

box and then clicking the Custom Dictionaries button. You

list in a custom dictionary or to create a new custom

dictionary. You can also add an existing custom dictionary,

such as a technical dictionary, to the list of dictionaries used

by Office programs or remove a custom dictionary and specify

the language for which each dictionary is used.

You can also activate the spelling checker by adding the

command to your Quick Access Toolbar or by right-clicking

any word with a red, wavy underline and selecting the

Spelling command.

The Change and Change All buttons insert the correct

spellings only in the current presentation; the Ignore All

button ignores all occurrences of the identified word for the

entire PowerPoint session.

CREATING AN AUTOCORRECT ENTRY

Discussion

If you commonly misspell or mistype a word, you can create an AutoCorrect entry for

it. Then, whenever you make that particular typing error, PowerPoint automatically

replaces it with the correct text. PowerPoint provides default AutoCorrect entries for a

few commonly misspelled words (for example, teh for the and recieve for receive).

In addition, you can create an AutoCorrect entry for any frequently used word or

phrase. When you type the defined AutoCorrect abbreviation, PowerPoint

automatically expands it into the complete word or phrase.

DISPLAYING SMART TAGS IN A PRESENTATION

Discussion

Smart Tags provide a list of actions you can perform relating to the recognized text.

For instance, you can display smart tags for dates, financial symbols, and people‟s

names.

You can display Smart Tags in a presentation using the Smart Tags page in the

AutoCorrect Options dialog box. After selecting the Label text with smart tags

option, you can select or deselect the individual types of smart tags you want to

recognize. The Check Presentation button then checks your presentation and adds

the recognized Smart Tags.

Deselecting the Label text with smart tags option removes the smart tags from a

presentation. However, if the Embed smart tags in this presentation option is

enabled, Smart Tags will remain in the presentation, even if you deselect the Label

text with smart tags option.

Smart Tag indicators appear under recognized text in the Outline tab and slide pane

as wavy, dotted purple underlines. When you point to the underlined text, a Smart

Tag Actions button appears. Selecting the button displays a menu of corresponding

actions you can take. For instance, you can use the Smart Tag for a date to open

Outlook and schedule a meeting.

The Smart Tag Actions menu

IMPORTING TEXT FROM WORD

Discussion

An existing Microsoft Word document can be used to create a PowerPoint

presentation. You can import text from Word into an existing PowerPoint

presentation or you can create a new presentation by importing an entire outline

created in Word.

When you import text from Word, it appears in PowerPoint in outline format.

PowerPoint creates the outline from text formatted with Heading styles in the Word

document. Any text formatted in Word in the Heading 1 style becomes a slide title in

the presentation; text formatted in the Heading 2 style becomes first-level text in a

presentation slide, text formatted in the Heading 3 style becomes second-level text in

a presentation slide, etc.

If the text in the Word document has not been formatted with styles, PowerPoint

creates the outline using the Word paragraph indentations.

If you use a Word outline to create a PowerPoint presentation, the first-level

headings from the Word outline are converted to slide titles, and the successive

outline levels are converted to bulleted items with corresponding indents.

Importing text from Word

PRINTING PRESENTATIONS

Discussion

In PowerPoint, you can preview and print an entire presentation (slides, outlines,

speaker notes, and handouts) in color, grayscale, or black and white. Although you

can print a presentation directly from the Office button menu, using the Print

Preview feature allows you to first view the printed pages onscreen before printing.

Many print options can be controlled from both the Print dialog box and Print

Preview. For example, you can use either method to select what you want to print

(slides, handouts, speaker notes, or outlines). The advantage of using Print Preview is

that you can view the results of your selections before you print.

After setting and viewing options in Print Preview, when you click the Print button,

the Print dialog box is displayed, where you can select the number of copies you want

to print, as well as choose whether or not to collate the printed material. In addition,

you can select the range of slides to print. You can print the entire presentation, the

current slide, or a selection of slides.

Also, available from the Office menu is a Quick Print option which immediately

prints the presentation to the default printer using the current print settings.

Depending on the type of printer available, presentations can

be printed on transparencies for use as overheads. You can

also print slides to a file and send the file to a service bureau

to print presentation slides.

The Color/Grayscale option allows you to print slides in

color, grayscale, or black and white. This option is available in

the Print dialog box or from the Options menu in print

preview.

SELECTING PAGE SETUP OPTIONS

Discussion

The Page Setup dialog box allows you to customize your printed slides. When you

select the size of paper on which you will be printing, PowerPoint automatically

determines the correct width and height of the printed slide. If you specify a different

width and height, Custom appears in the Slides sized for box.

PRINTING SLIDES

Discussion

PowerPoint provides a variety of methods for printing slides, speaker notes,

handouts, or the presentation outline, depending upon the features available to your

printer. You can print in color, black and white, or shades of gray. Printed copies are

particularly useful during the initial design phase to judge the design and content or to

use the copies as layout sheets.

In addition to printing all the slides in the presentation, you can print just the current

slide or selected slides. You can also specify a range of slides. For example, you can

print only slides 1, 4, 5, and 9; or you can print a range of slides, such as slides 3-10.

Other print options include placing a thin frame around each slide and printing

inserted comments on a separate page. You can also scale the slide to fit the paper.

This option resizes the slide image on the printout so that it fills the page; the actual

slide image in the presentation, however, does not change.

You can use Print Preview to view the presentation and modify the print options

before you print the slides.

Options set in the Print dialog box and most options set using the Options button in

Print Preview are not saved with the presentation. However, Headers and Footers

that you enter are saved.

Setting print options

presentation directly to the printer, using the current print

settings, without opening the Print dialog box. You can open

the Print dialog box by selecting the Office button menu and

the Print command. The Preview button in the Print dialog

box also allows you to go to Print Preview.

The Print dialog box retains your print options for the current

presentation. For example, if you have selected to print only

the current slide, this option remains selected the next time

you open the Print dialog box. However, print settings are

reset when you close the presentation.

CREATING HEADERS AND FOOTERS

Discussion

You can use the Header and Footer feature in Print Preview to include additional

information in your printouts. Headers display information at the top of a page and

footers at the bottom.

Notes, handouts, and outlines all contain placeholders for header and footer

information, which are displayed on every page of the printout. You can print the date

and time on each page, either by typing a fixed date or by selecting the option to

automatically display the current date and/or time in a selected format. You can also

print page numbers or enter custom text for the header and footer.

Slides have placeholders only for footers. Slide footers appear on the printout and on

the slide; consequently, footer information will also appear on the screen. You can

include the date and time, the slide number, or custom text in the slide footer. You can

apply the footer information only to the current slide or to all slides in the

presentation. You can also suppress the footer display on the title slide.

FORMATTING TEXT

Discussion

All text formatting in a slide is determined by the Theme upon which the presentation

is based, as well as the selected slide layout. Text formatting can be divided into

character formatting and paragraph formatting.

Character formatting refers to the font style, size, effect, and color of text on a slide.

You can use each of these text effects individually or in combination to enhance the

design and visual appeal of a slide. As with all design elements, you should use

character formatting judiciously. Too much color or too many different fonts can

distract and confuse the audience.

Paragraph formatting refers to the alignment and indenting of paragraphs, as well as

the spacing between and within paragraphs.

The placeholder for a slide determines the font, font size, paragraph alignment,

paragraph spacing, and bullet formatting of text entered into it. However, you can

change the formatting to suit your needs. Many of the character and paragraph

formatting attributes can be changed using the buttons on the Drawing Tools Format

contextual tab, the Font and Paragraph groups on the Home tab or using the Mini

Toolbar.

When you apply character formatting, it is applied to selected text only. However, to

change the formatting for a single word, you do not have to select the entire word; you

can just position the insertion point within the word. Likewise, when you apply

formatting to a single paragraph, you do not have to select the entire paragraph; you

only have to position the insertion point anywhere within it. To format multiple

paragraphs, however, you must select at least part of each paragraph to which you

want to apply formatting.

If you want to apply formatting to all text in a placeholder, you can drag to select all

the text. Alternatively, you can click the border of a placeholder to select all text

within it. (Although the text does not appear selected with this method, the

placeholder border changes to a solid line rather than a dashed line to indicate that the

placeholder is indeed selected.)

If you enter more lines into a placeholder than it can hold, or if you change the line

spacing so that text lines spill over the bottom of the placeholder, PowerPoint

automatically reduces the font size to fit all the text into the placeholder. When this

happens, a smart tag, the AutoFit Options button, appears. You can use the AutoFit

Options list to decide how to handle the situation.

Page 143: Power point 2007 level 1

PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1 Lesson 7 - Formatting Presentation Text

Villanova UNIT Training© Page 133

Reducing the size of a placeholder decreases the font size of

text within it. Expanding a placeholder after text has been

resized by AutoFit increases the font size of the text within it.

CHANGING AN EXISTING FONT

Discussion

A font is defined as a group of characters sharing similar type attributes. Fonts are

divided into two main types: serif and sans serif. Examples of serif fonts are Times

New Roman and Bookman. Examples of sans serif fonts include Arial, Tahoma, and

Verdana.

Text font is determined by the template and theme you choose when you create a

presentation. You can change the font as desired to suit your needs. In this way, you

can customize a presentation to accommodate special conditions, such as text for a

company logo.

PowerPoint includes many fonts from which you can choose. They range from heavy

and bold to thin and light. You can also mix fonts within a presentation. Varying the

font within a presentation improves the readability of the text and emphasizes key

points.

The fonts available to you depend upon which fonts are installed on your computer

and printer. A TT symbol next to a font name indicates a True Type font installed in

Windows. A printer icon next to a font name indicates a font installed in your printer.

Page 144: Power point 2007 level 1

Click in any blank area to deselect the placeholder.

MODIFYING THE FONT SIZE

Discussion

The default font size of titles, bulleted text, and other text in a presentation depends

upon the template or theme used to create the presentation. You can change font size

as required to emphasize or de-emphasize text.

Font size is measured in points. One point is approximately 1/72 of an inch. The larger

the font size, the larger the type. Therefore, a word with a 36-point font size is

approximately one-half inch in height.

Generally speaking, larger font sizes are used for headlines and titles, and smaller font

sizes are used for body text.

A font size can be applied to existing text or you can select a font size prior to typing

text. As you type, you can mix font sizes. For example, you can use a 36-point font for

the heading on a slide and a 12-point font for the subordinate text. Varying the font

size in a slide adds impact to a presentation by emphasizing key points.

CHANGING FONT STYLE AND EFFECT

Discussion

To enhance a presentation, you can change the font style and effect. Font style refers

to bolding and italicizing text. Font effects include underline, shadow, emboss,

superscript, and subscript. Buttons used to bold, italicize, underline, and shadow text

appear in the Font group on the Home tab.

Font styles and effects can make words stand out on a slide. You can use them to call

attention to key words in a presentation.

You can change character formats or effects as you type. You can mix character

formats and effects in any combination within the same document, but to get the

maximum effect of any formatting, it is best to use it sparingly.

CHANGING THE FONT COLOR

Discussion

Color can be used to emphasize text in a presentation. For example, the color red can

be used to emphasize a subtitle. Although font colors are determined by the template

and placeholder attributes, you can change the text color.

The Font Color button has two components. The Font Color button always displays

the currently selected color. To apply this color to selected text, you only have to click

the Font Color button. In addition, you can use the Font Color arrow to select a

different color from the color palette.

The color palette contains Theme Colors that complement your template, as well as

Standard Colors. If you want to add another color to the palette, you can select More

Colors and then choose a color from the Standard tab, or you can mix your own

color on the Custom page.

CHANGING TEXT ALIGNMENT

Discussion

Paragraph alignment refers to the position of each line of text in a paragraph between

the left and right margins.

You can change the alignment of text in a slide to achieve a desired look. The

Paragraph group contains four main alignment buttons: Align Left, Center, Align

Right, and Justify. Left alignment aligns text to the left margin and produces a ragged

right margin. Right alignment aligns text to the right margin and produces a ragged

left margin. Center alignment centers text between the left and the right margins.

Justify aligns text to both the left and right margins adding extra space between words

as necessary.

Aligning text affects the entire paragraph. You do not need to select the text in the

paragraph you want to align; you can simply position the insertion point anywhere

within the paragraph.

You can also change the alignment position of your text

within a placeholder using the Align Text button arrow in the

Paragraph group and selecting Top, Middle or Bottom.

Procedures

USING THE AUTOFIT OPTIONS BUTTON

Discussion

When you change the font size, add bullets to text, or change line spacing, the text

may no longer fit into the placeholder. When you make changes, PowerPoint

automatically AutoFits text to the placeholder, and a Smart Tag called the AutoFit

Options button appears. The AutoFit options allow you to determine how you want to

handle the situation.

The default option, AutoFit Text to Placeholder, adjusts the point size of the text so

that it fits into the placeholder. If this is the desired result, you do not need to select an

AutoFit option. The Stop Fitting Text to This Placeholder option retains the original

font size, thereby allowing the text to flow over the bottom border of the placeholder.

Depending on the placeholder, other options may appear. The Split Text Between

Two Slides option returns the text to the original font and creates a new slide for the

text spillover. The Continue on a New Slide option also creates a new slide, but with

Discussion

You can copy text from one presentation and paste it into another. For example, if one

presentation contains an overview of your company's products and services and

another presentation outlines your company's marketing plan, the content of some

slides may overlap. Copying text between presentations is easier to perform if both

presentations are open. You can arrange the presentation windows side-by-side so that

you can quickly copy slide text from one presentation to the other.

If the source and destination presentations use different design templates or themes,

the Paste Options button appears after the text is pasted into the destination

presentation. Using paste options, you can keep the original (source) formatting or

you can apply the formatting of the destination presentation to the pasted text. By

default, pasted text adopts the formatting of the presentation into which it is pasted.

WORKING WITH GRAPHICS

Discussion

You can add graphics to a PowerPoint presentation. A graphic can enhance a

presentation by depicting an idea that may be difficult to describe or by making the

presentation more visually appealing.

Graphic images that can be used in PowerPoint include simple drawn shapes, Clip

Art, and pictures (such as scanned images that are saved as files).

One method of adding graphics to a presentation is to use the Microsoft Clip

Organizer, which contains numerous images called Clip Art. The Clip Organizer

contains hundreds of professionally designed illustrations that can be freely

incorporated into a presentation. These illustrations include people, animals,

landscapes, banners, various types of equipment and tools, food, and an assortment of

symbols.

In addition to Clip Art, the Clip Organizer contains many photographs, sounds, and

video clips that can be used to create a multimedia presentation.

Another method of adding graphics to a presentation is to insert a picture from a file.

You can purchase Clip Art libraries that specialize in specific types of images, such

as for education, business, or a particular industry.

Once you have inserted a graphic into a presentation, you can resize it, crop or cut

away portions of the image, or change its colors. You also can move the graphic,

make copies of it, and add text to it.

When a clip is inserted, four small circles and four small squares called sizing handles

appear in a rectangle around the picture. Sizing handles indicate that the picture or

object is selected. The small, green circle is a rotate handle and can be used to rotate

the clip. In addition, the Picture Tools Format contextual tab appears as soon as you

select any graphic on a slide and closes when you deselect the graphic.

You can insert more than one clip on a slide. Once inserted, a clip can be moved or

resized.

You can delete an inserted clip or graphic by selecting it and

pressing the [Delete] key. When you delete a graphic,

PowerPoint may replace it with a content placeholder.

The first time you open the Clip Organizer, PowerPoint

prompts you to organize all your available Clip Art.

Villanova UNIT Training© Page 199

USING THE CLIP ART TASK PANE

Discussion

Clip Art images can add interest to a PowerPoint presentation. You can use the Clip

Art task pane to insert clip images.

To find a clip, enter a word related to the type of clip art you want to insert in the

Search for box. Words used in a search are called keywords. If you want to insert a

clip on a slide, but you are not sure which one you want to add, you can perform a

keyword search for clips. If your presentation deals with sporting goods, for example,

you can use the keyword sports to search the Clip Organizer; any clip pertaining to

sports will be found.

You can limit searches to a specific type of collection or media file by selecting the

corresponding options from the Search in and Results should be lists.

After entering your search criteria and clicking the Go button, thumbnails of the clips

found based on the search criteria appear in the Results box. You can scroll through

the Results box to view all your options.

When you point to a clip, a ScreenTip displays the keywords related to that image, its

size in pixels, its file size, and its graphic format. Clicking directly on a clip inserts it

into your presentation at the insertion point. You can use the list of options that

appears when you right-click a clip or click its drop-down arrow to copy or delete the

clip, edit the clip keywords, find clips with a similar style, or view the clip properties.

If the list of found clips does not suit your needs, you can change your search criteria

and search again.

In addition, you can use the Organize clips and Clip Art on Office Online links in

the Clip Art task pane to display additional ways of searching for graphics, sounds,

and animation.

USING SLIDE LAYOUTS

Discussion

PowerPoint also includes several slide layouts that contain placeholders for Clip Art.

There are two general types of placeholders used in PowerPoint: a general content

placeholder and a dedicated title placeholder.

A general content placeholder provides a link to insert clip art, as well as links to

insert tables, charts, SmartArt graphic, pictures, and media clips. To insert Clip Art

using a content placeholder, you can click the Insert Clip Art icon in the placeholder.

These placeholders open the Clip Art task pane, in which you can search for a Clip

Art image by keyword and then insert it into the placeholder.

Once inserted into the placeholder, the clip appears with eight sizing handles and a

green rotation handle, and the Drawing Tools Format contextual tab appears. The

clip can then be moved and resized as desired.

INSERTING A PICTURE

Discussion

In addition to Clip Art, you can insert a picture from an existing graphic file into a

contextual presentation. The Insert Picture button opens the Insert Picture dialog

box, in which you can select from a variety of pictures, including scanned images,

photographs, and drawn objects saved as files.

PowerPoint accepts several types of graphic file formats. These formats include .wmf,

.emf, .bmp, .rle, .dib, .gif, .jpg, .tif , .eps, and .png.

The Picture Tools Format contextual tab is displayed as soon as you select a picture

in a slide and closes when you deselect the picture.

You can insert several pictures at once by holding the [Ctrl]

key while selecting the files. All the selected pictures will be

inserted into the current slide; you can then move them to the

CROPPING A PICTURE

Discussion

Although cropping a picture reduces the size of the picture, cropping differs from

sizing. When you crop a picture, you are not changing the size of the picture; you are

Page 217: Power point 2007 level 1

Villanova UNIT Training© Page 207

actually cutting information away from it. For example, if a picture displays two

people, you can crop it so that only one person appears in it.

When you activate the Crop feature, the mouse pointer changes into a cropping tool.

You can use the Reset Picture button on the Picture Tools Format contextual tab

within the Adjust group to return a picture to its original size.

MOVING A GRAPHIC

Discussion

You can move a picture or graphic on a slide by dragging it to the desired location.

Moving objects to place them in the best possible location is a good way to enhance

the slide text.

In order to move a graphic, the mouse pointer must be a four-headed arrow.

You can also drag other slide objects, such as placeholders,

drawn objects, charts, and tables to move them. Unfilled

objects, such as placeholders, must be dragged by their

borders.

INSERTING CLIPS WITH THE CLIP ORGANIZER

Discussion

In addition to using the Clip Art task pane to search the Clip Organizer for media

clips, you can open the Clip Organizer to view and insert Clip Art.

The Clip Organizer window consists of two panes. The left pane is the Collection

List, which displays all available collections. The right pane displays thumbnails of

the clips stored in the selected collection.

The first time you open the Clip Organizer or the Clip Art task pane, PowerPoint

scans your available drives for all media files and creates collections under My

Collections and Shared Collections, using the same names as the folder(s) in which

the files are stored. Collections located on web sites appear under Web Collections.

The Clip Art supplied with Microsoft Office is located in the Office Collections

folder. Office clip art is divided into several thematic collections, such as Animals,

Concepts, People, and Seasons. Some collections contain subcollections, such as the

Domestic and Wild folders under Animals.

Browsing through the collections in the Clip Organizer is helpful if you want to view

available Clip Art to get an idea for a good visual illustration. If you want to search by

keyword, you can use the Search button on the toolbar to display the Search task pane

in place of the Collection List pane. The Collection List button redisplays the

Collection List pane.

You can leave the Clip Organizer open while you work and use the Windows taskbar

to switch between the presentation and Clip Organizer windows.

Page 226: Power point 2007 level 1

ORGANIZING CLIPS

Discussion

The Clip Organizer window provides both a menu bar and a toolbar for organizing

media clips.

The default view for browsing clips is the Thumbnails view, which displays the files

graphically. However, you can use the List or Details button on the Clip Organizer

toolbar to view just the file names or detailed information about each file,

respectively.

The clips installed by Microsoft Office have searchable keywords already assigned to

them. You can assign additional keywords to them, as well as to other media files, to

make them easier to find.

In addition to the default collections PowerPoint creates in My Collections, you can

create new collections, rename and delete collections, and move and copy clips and

graphics to other collections. The same clip can belong to more than one collection.

The Office Collections folder is read-only. Therefore, you cannot create, rename or

delete a file in it, nor can you move or copy clips into any Office collection. However,

clips in the Office collection can be copied to any collection under My Collections.

Clips, as well as entire collections, can be deleted from My Collections. You can

delete a clip from one or more collections, or you can delete it from the Clip

Organizer, which removes it from all collections. Although you cannot delete a

collection from Office Collections, you can remove Office clips from the Clip

Organizer.

You can force PowerPoint to refresh your collections automatically, or you can use

the Add Clips to Organizer command on the File menu in the Clip Organizer

window to manually add clips to the Clip Organizer. When you add a clip to the Clip

Organizer, you can select categories and create keywords for it. In addition, the Clips

Online button allows you to download and add clips to your Clip Organizer from the

Microsoft Clip Gallery web site.

The Clip Organizer can be collapsed to view a slide.

page in the Keywords dialog box to add the same keyword to

key and click each desired clip; to select all clips in the

collection, select the Edit menu and then Select All.

You can delete a clip from a collection by right-clicking it and

selecting Delete from “collection”. You can delete a

collection by right-clicking it in the Collection List pane and

selecting Delete “collection_name”.

Collections are not physical folders on a drive. When you

moving or copying the file, you are just creating or modifying

the shortcut to the actual file.

USING THE DRAWING GROUP

Discussion

The Drawing group on the Home tab provides several tools and features to assist you

in drawing and editing slide objects and text. For example, if you want to add a

balloon graphic to a slide, you can use the Oval and Line buttons in the Shapes

gallery to draw the balloon and its string.

The Drawing group provides a variety of drawing tools that can be used to create and

edit objects, as well as add color enhancements to them. These tools allow you to

create simple shapes such as lines, arrows, rectangles, and ellipses and to add text

boxes, shadows, and 3-D settings. The Drawing group also contains tools for

selecting fill, line, and font colors and line, dash, and arrow styles or alternatively

choose a preset Quick Style to customize your shape.

There are a number of pre-defined shapes including stars and banners, action buttons,

block arrows, and connectors for flowcharts.

The Arrange menu provides options for aligning, rotating, and flipping objects, as

well as for changing the order of overlapping layers. You can also group multiple

objects together so that they can be moved or resized as one object.

When you using the tools in the Drawing group the Drawing Tools Format

contextual tab appears offering further options to change and customize your drawing.

If drawing objects are added to the slide master, they appear

on every slide in a presentation, except the title slide.

DRAWING AN ENCLOSED OBJECT

Discussion

You can draw objects directly on a slide using the Shapes tools in the Drawing

group. Using these tools, you can draw enclosed objects and then move, copy, and/or

resize them as desired. Enclosed drawing objects, such as rectangles or ovals, are

filled by default. Filled objects are opaque and contain patterns and/or colors. If filled

objects are drawn in front of other slide objects, the objects behind them are hidden.

You can, however, remove an object‟s fill in order to view the objects behind it.

When you are drawing an object, the mouse pointer changes into a crosshair. The

center of the crosshair represents the outer border of the object. An object is

Page 245: Power point 2007 level 1

PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1 Lesson 12 - Working with Drawing Objects

Villanova UNIT Training© Page 235

automatically selected when you finish drawing it. A selected object displays eight

sizing handles and a green rotate handle, which can be used to rotate the object to the

desired position.

The Shapes gallery

To assist you in accurate drawing you should ensure you have

the Gridlines and Rulers displayed by checking the

appropriate boxes in the Show/Hide group in the View tab.

CHANGING THE FILL COLOR OF AN OBJECT

Discussion

When you draw an object on a slide, PowerPoint automatically applies a default fill

color to it. You can change the fill color of an object or remove its fill color so that the

object is transparent. For example, if you draw a circle on a slide, it appears with the

default fill color supplied by PowerPoint. If you want the circle to represent the sun,

you can change the fill color to yellow.

You can select a color from the Theme Colors palette, Standard Colors palette or

you can select the More Fill Colors option to view additional color options.

You must select the object(s) to which you want to add a fill color before you can

apply the fill color.

You can also use the Mini Toolbar to change the fill color of

an object.

You must click the arrow on the Shape Fill button to display

the color palette. If you click the button, PowerPoint changes

the fill of the selected object to the color displayed on the

Shape Fill button.

APPLYING A FILL EFFECT

Discussion

Special fill effects can be added to the background of an object using Shape Fill

menu. Fill effects include gradients, textures, and pictures.

A gradient is a color effect in which the shading gradually changes. Options on the

Gradient Fill page include using one, two, or preset colors for the gradient. If you

elect to use only one color, you can use the Dark/Light slider to adjust whether the

color fades to black or to white. The Transparency slider adjusts the density at the

starting and ending points of the gradient colors. Under Gradient Fill you can select a

direction for the shading and choose Linear, Radial, Rectangular or path variants.

You can also choose from a number of preset gradients, such as Early Sunset,

Horizon, and Desert. You can change the transparency and direction of a preset

gradient, but not its colors.

You can select a textured background from the Texture page. Colors and textures are

preset and cannot be modified. You can use the Other Textures button to search for

other background files.

The Picture page allows you to select a graphic file or another clip art picture as the

background for a graphic object. You can use the Select Picture button to search for

pictures.

DRAWING A LINE

Discussion

Lines can be used to indicate separate sections of a slide or to add visual effects. For

example, you can add lines to separate bullet items in a slide. Lines can be drawn at

various angles and positions. Drawn lines can be moved and sized as desired. There

are a number of different line styles you can use including Arrowheads, Scribble, and

Basic.

When you draw a line, the mouse pointer changes into a crosshair. The center of the

crosshair is the point at which the line is drawn.

Click in any blank area of the slide to deselect the line.

FORMATTING LINES

Discussion

You can format lines by changing the line style, color, weight, and dash style. In an

enclosed object, the line is the border around the object. In an open object, such as a

line or an arrow, the line is the object itself.

You can change the style of an existing line. Line styles pertain to the thickness of a

line, as well as to double and triple line styles. For example, to more dramatically

separate items in a slide, you can increase the width of the line that separates them. In

addition, you can change the style of an existing line to a dash style. Dash styles break

the line into dots or dashes.

You can also change the line color of a drawing object. Changing the line color can

enhance the appearance of the object. For example, if you are creating a logo,

changing the line color can help distinguish the border of the logo.

The Shape Outline button has two components. The Shape Outline button itself

always displays the currently selected color. To apply this line color to a selected

CREATING A TEXT BOX

Discussion

Although most slide layouts include placeholders for text boxes, you can create text

boxes as desired to label objects or graphics, add captions, or create additional notes.

Text created using the Text Box command in the Text group on the Insert tab is not

part of the presentation slide outline; the outline includes only the text created in

layout text placeholders. Text boxes can be added to the slide master to display the

same text on every slide (such as a company name).

You can either click at the desired slide location to create a text box, or you can drag

to draw it. When you click to create a text box, the text box automatically expands as

needed to accommodate the text. When you drag to create a text box, however, the

text box has a fixed width, the text wraps to a new line when it reaches the right edge

of the text box, and the text box automatically expands in length to fit the text. Using

either method, you can resize the text box to fit the text, or you can wrap the text to fit

the text box.

You can edit text in a text box the same way you edit any other presentation text.

Adding text to a text box

You can manually create a new line in a text box by pressing

the [Enter] key.

ARRANGING OBJECTS

Discussion

Arranging refers to the placement of objects, front to back. PowerPoint automatically

arranges objects as you draw them and places each object on a unique graphic layer.

You can arrange an unlimited number of objects in PowerPoint.

PowerPoint arranges objects in the order in which they were created. As a result, the

first object drawn is at the back of the stack and the last object drawn is at the front.

For example, if you draw an oval to represent an eye and then draw a circle to

represent the eye's pupil in the same location on the slide, the pupil appears in front of

the eye.

You can change the order of stacked objects so that a selected object moves in front of

or behind other objects.

The Arrange group in the Drawing Tools Format contextual tab includes four

options for changing the order of stacked objects. The Bring to Front and Send to

Back buttons move a selected object to the front or back of the entire stack. The

Bring Forward and Send Backward options move a selected object forward or

backward, one layer at a time.

GROUPING OBJECTS

Discussion

When objects are grouped, you can work with them as if they were a single item.

Grouping is particularly useful when multiple objects are intended to work together.

When you combine multiple objects into a single group, you can size and position the

grouped objects as a single object. In other words, you can copy, flip, rotate, and size

the grouped objects as a unit, rather than duplicating, moving, or changing each item

individually.

Although an item may be grouped, you can still select an individual object in the

group and modify it separately. However, if you want to change the size or position of

Page 267: Power point 2007 level 1

PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1 Lesson 12 - Working with Drawing Objects

Villanova UNIT Training© Page 257

a object in a group, you must ungroup it. After you have made the desired changes,

you can regroup the objects to preserve the object as a single unit.

Imported graphics (such as pictures and clip art) often consist of multiple objects that

have already been grouped into a single object. You can create interesting effects by

ungrouping them and making changes to the individual objects. You can change

object attributes or rearrange, resize, and delete objects from the graphic. You can

even combine elements from different images. You can then regroup the objects to

form new, modified images.

A grouped object

If you want to ungroup an object to make individual changes

to it, select the object you want to ungroup, select the

Drawing Tools Format contextual tab, and then select the

Ungroup option from the Group menu in the Arrange group.

If you ungroup a Clip Art picture, PowerPoint prompts you

to convert it into a Microsoft Office drawing object.

You can select multiple objects by holding the [Shift] key and

clicking each object you want to select.

You can also access the Group submenu from the Arrange

button in the Drawing group on the Home tab.

RUNNING A SLIDE SHOW

Discussion

You can use a slide show to display a PowerPoint presentation on or from your

computer. Slide Show view allows you to preview a presentation. You can view

individual slides or the entire slide show in sequence to assess the flow of the

presentation. When you advance past the last slide in a slide show, the slide show ends

and the presentation appears in its previous view.

Running a slide show is one of the most effective ways to evaluate the impact of a

presentation before adding your own information, illustrations, and designs. For

example, you can run a slide show to determine if the individual slides are placed in

the most appropriate order for emphasizing the points you are trying to make.

Running a slide show

In Normal view, the Slide Show button begins the slide show

at the selected slide. In Slide Sorter view, the slide show

begins with the selected slide or with the slide to the left of the

vertical line.

You can also run a slide show by selecting the View tab and

then the Slide Show button in the Presentation Views group.

This method always begins the slide show with the first slide.

Page 273: Power point 2007 level 1

PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1 Lesson 13 - Using Slide Show View

You can control from which slide to begin a slide show using

the From Beginning and From Current Slide buttons in the

NAVIGATING A SLIDE SHOW

Discussion

PowerPoint 2007 includes many tools for navigating and working with slide shows.

The Slide Show toolbar appears in the lower left corner in Slide Show view. You may

need to move your pointer for the toolbar to appear, as it is semi-transparent and

Page 274: Power point 2007 level 1

Lesson 13 - Using Slide Show View PowerPoint 2007 - Lvl 1

Page 264 Villanova UNIT Training©

unobtrusive. The toolbar contains four buttons. The forward and back arrows on the

toolbar can be used to advance to the next and previous slides in the show.

The shortcut menu in the slide show provides access to all the navigation, screen and

pointer options. The Go to Slide menu, which allows you to jump to a slide, displays

a list of all the slides in the show. The Last Viewed option returns you to the

previously viewed slide. Therefore, if you jumped from slide 2 to slide 7, the Last

Viewed option will jump back to slide 2.

The Switch Programs option suspends the PowerPoint slide show and displays the

Windows taskbar so you can switch to another application. For example, you may

want to switch to Excel to display a chart you have not included in the presentation.

When you switch back, you can resume your show.

The Pointer Options menu is displayed on the shortcut menu or when you select the

Pointer button on the Slide Show toolbar. You can use this menu to control pointer

and pen options. The Pointer Options menu contains the Arrow Options submenu.

You can use this submenu to hide and display the mouse pointer during the slide

show.

Navigating a slide show

If the Slide Show toolbar does not appear, you can right-click

the mouse to display the available options as a menu.

PowerPoint now includes a White Screen option along with

the Black Screen option on the Screen menu. These options

allow you to display a black or white screen while you are

discussing or focusing on other issues.

Page 275: Power point 2007 level 1

CREATING A CUSTOM SHOW

Discussion

Normally, the flow of your presentation will reflect the order in which you have

placed your PowerPoint 2007 slides. However, there may be situations when you are

using an existing presentation but want to repeat, omit or reorder slides. It could be

that you want to repeat certain slides to reinforce a point or decide to leave out

sensitive information when presenting to different audiences. This is where the

Custom Show feature becomes very useful. Custom Show enables you to present just

the slides you want to use from an existing presentation.
