| |
 |
| |
| How do I present a PowerPoint or a slide from any other program without laughing? This was one of the challenging questions that someone posted on Quora, and I decided to take up the challenge. Here is my answer based upon what I answered on Quora, but I have expanded this version extensively. |

| The Graphics Spectrum — Lives of Quiet Desperation |
| |
 |
| |
| Mr. Thoreau’s words are applicable to business people today who lead lives of not-so-quiet desperation every time they have to make a presentation. Of all the many reasons for their desperation—time pressure, workload, and the fear of failure—perhaps the most pressing is the self-imposed practice of
using their PowerPoint slides as not only the presentation graphics, but also as speaker notes, send-aheads, and leave-behinds. This multitasking approach produces images of encyclopedic detail that serve none of the functions. |

| File Types That Can be Opened in PowerPoint 365 for Windows |
| |
 |
| |
| Programs such as PowerPoint are a very significant part of our workflows not just because of their vast abilities, but also because they can understand content from so many file formats. These include file types that PowerPoint can save and open. We already explored file types that PowerPoint 365 for Windows can save to,
but when you go and look at the file types that PowerPoint 365 for Windows can open, you'll find that the list of file types is not exactly the same. There are several omissions and additions compared to that list. When you access the Open dialog box in PowerPoint 365 for Windows, you can choose the file type you want to open. |

| File Types That Can be Opened in PowerPoint 365 for Mac |
| |
 |
| |
| We already learned about the file types that PowerPoint 365 for Mac can save to. But when you go and look at the file types that PowerPoint 365 for Mac can open, you'll find that there's no drop-down list in the Open dialog box. All files within any navigated folder are shown, and the only way you understand that
a particular file type can be opened is because those files are not grayed out. Have you ever wondered what all those file types that are not grayed out are? Should you even be concerned about them at all? These are the file types that PowerPoint 365 for Mac can open. |

| File Menu and Backstage View in PowerPoint 2019 for Windows |
| |
 |
| |
| If you explore how people use PowerPoint, you will discover that people are successful in finding options that are intuitive and easy-to-discover. They fail when options are hidden in drop-down menus or dialog boxes. Fortunately, Backstage view is from the former category of options. Let us explore existing features
within Backstage view in PowerPoint 2019 for Windows. |

| File Menu and Backstage View in PowerPoint 365 for Mac |
| |
 |
| |
| Backstage view is not akin to other PowerPoint views such as Slide Sorter view or Normal view that relate to working with slides. In fact, Backstage view is not a view in those terms, because you can be using Normal view (to work with slides) and Backstage view (to work with options) at the same time. Consider Backstage
view as an over-sized menu that gives you access to many options. |
