  11. Expanding Clip Art • Open the Clip Art pane in PowerPoint by opening the insert tab and selecting Clip Art from the illustrations group. • From the bottom of the pane, select Clip art on Office online. • At this online search engine, search out clips in various media as desired. When you download them, they will become part of your Clip Art gallery.

  12. Expanding Clip Art TRY IT: Expand Clip Art to illustrate a concept more effectively.

  13. Embedding Fonts • Fonts are housed on individual computers. • Some fonts are common to all computers (Arial or Times New Roman) • On other computers the font may not properly display!

  14. Embedding Fonts You can only read this text on the computer it was created. Christmas Lights Indoor You can only read this text on the computer it was created. Groovy Ghosties You can only read this text on the computer it was created. Candy Stripe Fonts downloaded from www.fontsnthings.com

  15. Embedding Fonts • To avoid this problem, do one of the following: • Embed fonts within the file. • Open the Office button. Select PowerPoint options on the bottom, and click on save on the left. Specify to embed TrueType fonts. • Use only universal fonts, such as Arial, Times New Roman, or Courier New.

  16. Capturing Screen Shots In Windows, you can capture an image of the screen, and insert it into any application as a graphic. This can be very handy in teaching computer techniques. • Press the “print screen” key to capture an image of the entire screen. (OR hold the “alt” key and press “print screen” to capture just the active window). • Then “paste” to insert the new graphic into any application.
