Presentation Files

Each annotated screen capture represents a page in the presentation file. The Page

Creation tools are used to add additional pages to the presentation file. The

presentation file is automatically saved in a .GWB file.

As soon as InterWrite goes into Annotation Mode (in Windows—when an Annota-

tion Tool is selected; on the Mac—when Interactive Mode is started up), an untitled

presentation file is created. Unless you give the file a name, it is automatically saved

using today’s date. (Multiple files created today have 01, 02, 03, etc., appended to

the date name.)

An existing presentation file can be opened, its pages can be sorted, annotations

can be added to the existing pages, and new pages can be added to the file. Your

presentation will determine how each presentation file evolves. For example, you

can prepare a presentation file of blank maps ahead of time for a geography lesson.

Or, you can capture and annotate each of the monthly earnings spreadsheets as you

review the past fiscal year during a budget meeting. Or, you can run a PowerPoint

Slide Show in Office Mode (Windows only) and annotations can be added to each

slide and saved in the native file.

You can build your presentation file during your presentation, or you can pre-build

it, including the screen captures, images, graphs and text pages you want to present.

However you choose to do it, the process is the same. To capture a screen or

window, click on the Mouse Mode tool with your electronic Pen and arrange the

desktop for capture. Select an Annotation Tool, a Pen, for example, indicate your

capture preference (by clicking on either the Full Screen, Partial Screen, or Window

option in the dialog), and annotate the captured image. Use the Page Creation

Tools to add a blank, gridded, or background image page. By default, InterWrite is

in Autosave mode, so your annotated pages are automatically saved as you build

your presentation file. Click on the Save tool to save the file using the default

filename (today’s date), or a name you type on the pop-up IW Keyboard.
