Elements of presentations
When planning, consider adding the following elements to your presentation:
Title slides are usually the first or second slide in a presentation and state the subject of the content.
Include the name, title, photo, contact information, and a short biography of the Adobe Presenter or presenters.
Add a company or organization logo to brand and personalize a presentation.
Depending on the length of the information, include copyright text on the first or last slide in a presentation. You can also
add a separate slide containing only copyright information.
Create a distinctive start and finish to clearly show users the beginning, middle, and end of the presentation. You
can use the same opening and closing slide across a series of presentations for a unified professional look.
Use divider slides to delineate sections within a presentation. Divider slides are especially useful in long presentations.
Voice-over narration, music, or sound effects can add a new dimension to presentations.
Let users interact with the presentation, while you track their learning progress or obtain information (surveys).
Add existing information as supporting content for presentations. You can include documents, spreadsheets, links to web pages,
and images as attachments.
Planning a presentation
It is helpful to do some planning before you create a presentation. First consider what you want the user to learn from your presentation. Defining
this goal at the beginning lets you create a comprehensive plan for success. After you have defined the goal of the presentation, you can use an
existing PowerPoint presentation and enhance it with the most effective Adobe Presenter options.
Design your presentation.
Use storyboards, scripts, or whatever organizational materials are appropriate. Consider what elements to include in the presentation. (For more
information, see Elements of presentations.)
Start PowerPoint.
You can open an existing PowerPoint presentation or create a new presentation.
Include narration and other special elements.
In PowerPoint, from the Adobe Presenter ribbon, add audio narration, quizzes, videos with narration, presenter information, and other options to
your presentation. Include attachments, such as web pages or documents, and customize themes (the appearance of the presentation viewer) for
each presentation.
Preview your presentation.
Test how your presentation output looks like by previewing a part or entire presentation.
Publish the presentation.
Publish the presentation to Adobe Connect Server. You can also burn the presentation onto a CD or upload the presentation to the web using a
third-party FTP software.
