Adding Title
If you want to increase the effectiveness of the presentation, permanent documents may be quite useful for the reference of the audience later on. Printing handouts may help you for this purpose; however publishing your presentation on the Internet or intranet might be a better solution since the Internet is becoming more and more important in all areas of society.
Creating a Group Home Page
Creating a presentation by using the AutoContent wizard was discussed in the first chapter. Besides, you can use this feature to create a group home page or a summary page. Group Home Page is more likely a web site rather than a presentation, and group members share and add information. Let us start AutoContent Wizard.
Step 1: Click File>New
Step 2: Choose
Step 3: Select Group Home Page and click <Next> from the list.
Step 4: Choose Web Presentation from the output types. Click <Next>
Step 5: You can add a title that will be displayed on the title bar of the browser.
Step 6: Click <Finish> button to finish creating home page.

CHAPTER 7

As you see, a sample Group Page was created with sample texts. All you have to do is to replace these texts with your own ones. A navigation menu is located on the left hand side of the slide. If you pay attention, you will see that it looks like a web site, though slides exist in place of web pages. Now let us see what will happen, when you save the presentation as a web page. You will click File>Web Page Preview to see it through a web browser.
You have noticed that it has mhtml:file on the title bar. This file type is used for web archive purposes. PowerPoint can save the whole presentation with all the texts, animations and effects as a single file. But the viewers must have higher versions of the web browsers to view it correctly.
Saving a Presentation |
|
|
There are several ways of saving your presentation according to |
|
|
your purpose of use. |
|
|
Saving as an MHT (Single File Web Archive) |
|
|
You can save the presentation as a web archive. This feature lets |
|
|
you save all the contents as a single file. On the other hand, it |
|
|
slows down the web page loading. It is better to use an MHT |
|
|
archive in a local area network or as an attachment to an e-mail. |
|
|
Step 1: Choose Single File Web Page from the Save as type drop- |
|
|
down box. Save as dialog box changes and Publish and Change |
|
|
Title appears on top of the File Name tab. This title appears on the |
|
|
title bar of the browsers when the presentation is viewed in the |
|
|
Internet. It is the main title by default. If you want, you can add a |
|
|
descriptive title for your presentation, or simply type the name of |
|
|
the company. |
|
|
Step 2: Publish option will be discussed later in this unit. It is used |
|
|
to change some properties of the web site format. |
Save as Web Page Dialog Box |
|
Step 3: Just give a name and click the <Save> button. |

|

Now go to the location where you saved your file and double-click |
|
|
to see what you have created. When clicked, your presentation will |
|
|
start in the web browser. |

Saving as a Web Site
Single File Web page is a new type, so the older versions of the browsers do not support this type. You can use web page format for older version of browsers that do not run web archive files. When using web page option, PowerPoint creates a folder and puts all the components of your presentation including pictures in this folder. It creates an array of GIF and HTM files, - and WAV, AVI, JPG and other file types depending on your presentation.
To save a presentation as a Web Site, choose web page from the
Save as type combo box in the Save As dialog box.

Publishing to the Internet
So far you have learned how to save the presentation without
changing the web site features. If you click |
while |
saving, you will be able to make some arrangements that are |
|
necessary for web creating. |
|
Publish what? |
|
Use this section to specify whether you want to create a web page |
|
of the whole presentation or of a custom show. |
|
Display speaker notes |
|
This option is selected by default. Uncheck this option if you do |
|
not want the viewers to see your notes automatically. You can |
|
leave this option checked if you publish the presentation for |
|
reviewing purposes. |
|
Browser support |
Publish as Web Page Dialog Box |
|
|
This section has three options; |
|
Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or later (high fidelity): When this option is selected, almost all of the effects, sound, transitions etc. of the presentation are transferred to the web page. Viewers can see the animation in full screen mode, or they can edit the presentation in PowerPoint later. Use this option if you are sure all of the viewers have the later versions of the web browsers, otherwise they will face error messages or will lose most of the animation effects.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0, Netscape Navigator 3.0 or later: You will lose many of the special effects that you used in the presentation. You create a presentation with basic elements; hence more people can view it. You can not open or edit this file in PowerPoint anymore.
All browsers listed above: When you select this option, all versions of the browsers can view the presentation. Newer browsers can show the animation effects, but older browsers can view the basic presentation. This option creates more files and occupies more space in memory. The file sizes are important in the Internet; they affect the webpage's loading time-which is essential for viewers. It is not preferred unless it is necessary.
