My Midterm Exam

  25. Printing You may notice that this presentation contains little color. That is because these slides are intended primarily for printing. When you add color to your slide presentation you can never be sure how the slide will look in print. Printing a black or colored background will use excessive toner or ink in printing. There are times when you want to use colored slides and also print them. You can check to see what the slide will look like in print by clicking B&W View button on the toolbar. This will allow you to see the screen as it will look when you print it in black and white My Midterm Exam

  27. This completes the lesson on tables, footers and printing. Use your creativity to make your presentation interesting, informative and motivating. You did a great job See the notes on the next slide ……….. My Midterm Exam

  28. Notes This presentation is very graphic intensive. It uses lots of screen captures, scalled for presentations. A presentation like this uses a great deal of memory. If your presentation contains lots of graphics you may need as much as 64K of memory. Of course 64K is becoming standard for PC’s because of the new applications that requre lots of memory. This presentation also takes up a lot of disk space. In its present form it is more than 24 MB. A standard floppy holds 1.44 MB You can use file compressionsuch as PKZip to reduce the size to about 644 KB. This is good for transporting your presentation from computer to computer but you need to uncompress the presentation to use it. My Midterm Exam
