Creating a Presentation for On-Site Use

Embedded Pictures and Images
• If you use pictures and/or image files they should be in JPEG (.jpg) format
• Resolutions higher than 72 dpi will not enhance the quality; they will only unnecessarily increase the file size of your presentation

Fonts
• ONLY STANDARD WINDOWS INSTALLATION FONTS WILL BE SUPPORTED
• You may choose to embed non-standard fonts, however, embedding fonts can sometimes cause slides to become un-editable on other PC’s

Video clips
• Save all video clips in WMV format, MPG and AVI formats may also be used
• Use only standard compression codec’s used by Windows
• Place movie files in the same folder (directory) as your presentation before you insert them into   your presentation(s)
• Make sure you include all movie clips utilized when you submit your presentation
• Please keep in mind that many videos can be as effective at lower resolutions

For MAC Users
• Save all image files as JPEG, NOT TIF, some TIF files will not appear on a Windows PC
• Save all movie files as MPG or AVI, NOT QUICKTIME, QuickTime files will not play in PowerPoint  on a Windows PC
• Use slide transitions and custom animations sparingly as some may not play properly on a Windows based PC
• Use common cross platform fonts such as Arial, Courier or Times New Roman
• Check your presentation(s) on a Windows PC before submitting to check for conversion issues
