At the end of the course, reset all program and operating system defaults that may have been modified during the course, prior to re-running the course Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

6 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 6 Sample files for this Course During this course you will need to open samples files. These are stored under the Documents folder in a sub-folder called: PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate. If you create any new files, unless otherwise instructed, you should also save the files in this folder Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

7 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 7 PowerPoint 2013 Customizing and Compatibility Issues Modifying PowerPoint options Start PowerPoint and press Ctrl+N to display a blank presentation. Click on the File Tab in the top-left of the PowerPoint window to display a menu. Click on the Options button displayed towards the bottom of the menu. The PowerPoint Options dialog box will be displayed. This dialog box has several side tabs allowing you to configure PowerPoint to your needs Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

8 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 8 General Options: The options displayed on this tab allow you to control the color scheme used by the PowerPoint windows and ribbons. You can also set your name and preferred language. To set the user name type your name into the User name section of the dialog box. This information can be used by application programs to automatically insert your details into a document Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

9 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 9 Proofing Options: Here you can control how PowerPoint will correct or highlight incorrectly spelt words in your presentations Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

10 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 10 Save Options: Here you can control the default save format. You can also choose the default folder into which presentations are saved. To change the default folder you would need to type in the full folder path details for the new default in the Default local file location section of the dialog box. If you did this then the next time you tried to open a file it would first look in this default folder and each time you save a new document it would want to save to the default 2013 Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

11 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 11 folder. Advanced Options: 2013 Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

12 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 12 Customize Ribbon Options: Here you can customize the Quick Access toolbar (normally displayed above the File Tab) to include other icons you use often Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

13 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 13 Add-Ins Options: Here you can control which third party applications can integrate themselves into PowerPoint Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

14 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 14 Trust Center Options: This allows you to access statements from Microsoft concerning your privacy when you access various Office Online features. Close the PowerPoint Options dialog box by clicking on the Close button. Compatibility issues when saving a presentation When Microsoft introduced PowerPoint 2007, they created a new format for saving your PowerPoint file. PowerPoint 2013 uses the same file format as PowerPoint You should be aware that the formats used by the 2007 and 2013 versions are different from earlier versions, such as PowerPoint Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

15 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 15 Open a presentation calling Saving. NOTE: The sample files for this course are stored in a folder called PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate under the Documents folder. This presentation was created using PowerPoint 2013 and then saved as a PowerPoint 2013 formatted file. Normally when you save a file you do not worry about the format, you just click on the Save icon and if necessary give the file a name. It is important to realize that the file format used by PowerPoint 2013 is different from that used by some earlier versions of PowerPoint such as PowerPoint 2003 or PowerPoint If you create a PowerPoint presentation using the PowerPoint 2013 version and then intend to a copy to a colleague who may be using an earlier version such as PowerPoint 2003 then your colleague may not be able to even open the file, let alone make any editing changes Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

16 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 16 The best solution is for you to save the file in an earlier format. This is very easy to do and you need not worry about the underlining technicalities involved. Click on the File Tab (top-left of the screen) and from the drop down displayed select the Save As command. The Save As screen will be displayed. Click on the Computer Item and then click on the Browse button Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

17 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 17 The Save As dialog box is displayed. Click on the down arrow to the right of the Save as type section of the dialog box. Look at the range of formats that you can save the file as. In this case select the PowerPoint Presentation format. Enter a file name of OLD FORMAT Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

18 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 18 Click on the Save button and the file will be saved in a backwards compatible format. NOTE: You may see the Compatibility Checker dialog box, warning you that you may no longer be able to edit some elements within your presentation. If you look at the PowerPoint Title Bar (across the top of your Microsoft PowerPoint screen), you will see that the file name is followed by the message [Compatibility Mode]. This is how you can tell whether you are using the PowerPoint 2013 format or the earlier PowerPoint format. There is another solution to this problem. If your colleagues are using an earlier version of PowerPoint, such as PowerPoint 2003, they can download additional, free, software from Microsoft, which will allow them to at least open and read any files that you send to them in PowerPoint 2013 format. This is beyond the scope of the course but you need to be aware that it is at least possible! Other file types you can use when saving a presentation Beside issues of backwards compatibility, the Save as type option in the Save As dialog box allows you to be very flexible when saving a presentation Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

19 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 19 If you selected the Web Page option you can save the presentation as a web site compatible file. If you select the GIF or JPEG formats you can save the slides as graphic files that are compatible with just about any image editing programs that you may have. You can also save the file using PNG, TIFF or BMP graphic formats Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

20 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 20 If you save the file as an Outline/RTF (Rich Text Format) format file, then these files are compatible with most other programs (but some formatting and functionally may be lost when saving in this format). If you save the file using the PowerPoint Show option then the presentation will be saved in a special PowerPoint Show format. If you save a file in this format, close the presentation and then open the PowerPoint Show formatted file, it will always open in Slide Show view, not Normal view Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

21 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 21 Another useful format to save in is PDF. This format can be read by the free Adobe Acrobat Reader program. Experiment with saving the presentation in these different formats and then close any open files. Saving a presentation as a template Re-open a presentation calling Saving. Click on the File Tab (top-left of the screen) and from the drop down displayed select the Save As command. The Save As screen is displayed. Select Computer and then click on the Browse button. The Save As dialog box is displayed. In the File name section enter the name Cheltenham. Click on the down arrow to the right of the Save as type section of the dialog box and select PowerPoint Template, as illustrated below Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

22 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 22 You may notice that the Save In folder automatically changes to the Custom Office Templates folder. Click on the Save button and the presentation will be saved as a template. This means that you can now create new presentations based on the template that you have just saved. Before proceeding close all open presentation files. Close PowerPoint Creating a new presentation based on a customized template Restart PowerPoint. If you look at the opening PowerPoint screen you will see an item called Personal listed Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

23 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 23 Click on the Personal link and you will see any personal templates listed. Select the required template (in this case the Cheltenham template), and click on the OK button. A new presentation, based on your template will now be displayed. NOTE: It is important to realize that when you create a new document based on a template, any changes that you make are only made to the new document, not to the template. This means that the template is protected and can be used over and over again to create new presentations Cheltenham Courseware Pty. Ltd.

24 PowerPoint 2013 Intermediate Page 24 Close any open presentations without saving your changes. Minimizing and restoring the Ribbon On certain computer monitors you may find that the Ribbon occupies a large proportion of the screen area which may be better used for viewing your presentation.
