Considerations for PC Users [create on PC then move to Mac]
Appropriate extension
usage: use .PPTX, .PPSX if saving from PowerPoint
2007/2008/2011/2011 format or use .PPT or .PPS if saving to an
earlier-version format or saving from an earlier version.
Copy the media file to the
folder where the PowerPoint file is, and only
then insert it; otherwise links to most media files will break.
AVI or MPEG are better
choice files for videos or sounds; don't use WMV
(Windows Media Player).
Usage of fonts: Arial,
Times New Roman, Courier and Symbol are best
presented on MACS.
Don't squeeze your text
into placeholders: Text rendering on PC vs MAC (font
substitution) can cause your squeezed text to get cut off by text boxes.

to one side of a tack board. The recommended poster
size is 90 cm (Width) x 200 cm (Length).
