Thank you to the entire Wiley team for helping me complete another book — you are all very friendly and helpful. Special thanks go to Aaron Black and Jade Williams, who gave me their undivided attention when I needed it.

Thank you to Technical Editor Vince Averello for doing a thorough and detailed job. Thanks to Copy Editor Marylouise Wiack for being thorough. I write like an engineer and Marylouise gave my writing eloquence with her recommendations.

Special thanks to my sweetheart and wife, Shane, who kept things together while I took the time to write this book — it would have been difficult to do it without her help and support.

These people had a direct influence on this book, but thank you also to my friends who took an interest in this book and listened to me talk about it while I wrote it.

Introducing PowerPoint

With PowerPoint, you can create a professional-looking slide show. The PowerPoint program provides tools you can use to build presentations that include graphics, media, animations, and an assortment of ways to transition from slide to slide. It provides various views and user interfaces to suit your particular needs. These PowerPoint tools enable you to design and build a quality presentation. Many tasks start in Backstage view. To access this view, click the File tab on the ribbon.

Build an Outline

You can type text in outline form to build slides for your presentation. In the Outline view, an icon represents each slide, and each slide contains a slide title next to the icon. Second-level lines of text on the outline appear as bullet points on the slide. These bullets convey the main points you want to make about each topic.

Choose a Slide Design and Layout

A slide design applies preset design elements such as colors, background graphics, and text styles to a slide. A particular slide layout applied to a slide determines what type of information that slide includes. For example, a Title Slide layout has a title and subtitle. A Title and Content layout includes a title, plus a placeholder that holds a list of bullet points, a table, or other graphic elements.
