Like every other application in Microsoft Office suite, PowerPoint
is loaded with features. So many, in fact, that even veterans don't
know where to find them all. Microsoft solved this problem in
PowerPoint 2007 by redesigning the user interface with a tabbed
toolbar that makes features easy to locate and use. PowerPoint 2007
also boasts improved graphics, additional templates, the ability to
save custom layouts, and improved collaboration through SharePoint.
One thing Microsoft hasn't improved is its poor documentation. To
learn the ins and outs of all the features in PowerPoint 2007,
Microsoft merely offers online help. If you're familiar with
previous versions of the program, you may be lost the first time
you fire up the new PowerPoint; or you would be if it weren't for
PowerPoint 2007: The Missing Manual. This book, written
specifically for this version of the software, not only offers the
basics of how to create, save, set up, run, and print a basic
bullets-and-background slideshow, but takes you into the world of
multimedia, animation, and interactivity. You'll learn how to add
pictures, sound, video, animated effects, and controls (buttons and
links) to their slides, along with ways to pull text, spreadsheets,
and animations created in other programs. You can also create your
own reusable design templates and learn to automate repetitive
tasks with macros. Learn how to take advantage of advanced
functions (such as adding custom background images) that existed in
previous PowerPoint versions, but were so cleverly hidden that few
people ever found them.
