Office PowerPoint 2007 enables you to quickly create high-impact, dynamic presentations, while integrating workflow and ways to easily share this information. From the redesigned user interface to the new SmartArt Graphics and formatting capabilities, Office PowerPoint 2007 puts the control in your hands to create great-looking presentations.
Create Dynamic Presentations
Quickly create dynamic and great-looking presentations using the redesigned user interface and new SmartArt Graphics capabilities.
- Get better results faster with a redesigned user interface. Office PowerPoint 2007 has redesigned the look and feel of the user interface to make creating, presenting, and sharing presentations an easier and more intuitive experience. You now have all of the rich features and capabilities of PowerPoint in a streamlined, uncluttered workspace that minimizes distraction and helps people to achieve the results they want more quickly and easily.
- Create powerful, dynamic SmartArt Diagrams. Easily create strong and dynamic relationship, workflow, or hierarchy diagrams from within Office PowerPoint 2007. You can even convert a bulleted list into a diagram, or modify and update existing diagrams. It?s easy to take advantage of rich formatting options with the contextual SmartArt Diagram tools in the new user interface.
- Create presentations quickly and easily by saving custom layouts. In Office PowerPoint 2007, you can define and save your own custom slide layouts, so you no longer have to waste valuable time cutting and pasting your layouts onto new slides or deleting content on a slide with the layout you want. With PowerPoint Slide Libraries, it is easy to share these custom slides with others so that your presentations have a consistent and professional look and feel.
- Apply a consistent look and feel in one click. Office PowerPoint 2007 themes help you change the look and feel of your entire presentation with just one click. Changing the theme of your presentation not only changes the background color but the color of a diagram, table, chart, or font, and even the style of any bullet points within a presentation. By applying a theme, you can be confident that your entire presentation has a more professional and consistent look and feel.
- Dramatically modify shapes, text, and graphics with new tools and effects. You can now manipulate and work with your text, tables, charts, and other presentation elements in much richer ways than ever before. Office PowerPoint 2007 makes these tools readily available through the streamlined user interface and contextual tabs, so that in just a few clicks, you can add impact to your work.
Easily Share Presentations
Dramatically improve the way users share and repurpose information.
- Communicate with users across platforms and devices. Help ensure broad communication with your Office PowerPoint 2007 presentations by converting your files to XML Paper Specification (XPS) and Portable Document Format file (PDF) for sharing with users on any platform.
- Easily repurpose and share content. Wish there were a better way to reuse content from one presentation to another? With PowerPoint Slide Libraries, you can store presentations as individual slides on a site supported by Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 and easily repurpose the content later right from within Office PowerPoint 2007. Not only does this cut down the time you spend creating presentations, but any slides you insert can remain synchronized with the server version, helping to ensure that your content is up to date.
- Reduce your document sizes and improve damaged file recovery at the same time. The new, compressed Microsoft Office PowerPoint XML Format offers a dramatic reduction in file size, while offering an improvement in data recovery for damaged files because of the PowerPoint XML Format architecture. This new format provides a tremendous savings to storage and bandwidth requirements, and reduces the burden on IT personnel.
- Integrate presentations stored in Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services technology with Microsoft Office Outlook 2007. With Office Outlook 2007 you can fully interact with information stored in Windows SharePoint Services technology anywhere, anytime. You can connect your Office PowerPoint 2007 presentation, stored in Windows SharePoint Services, with Office Outlook 2007 and have full editing capabilities, knowing that any changes you make to the presentation stored in Outlook 2007 can be reflected on the server version.
- Use Microsoft Office Groove 2007 for real-time review sessions. Using Office Groove 2007, you can initiate a live review of an Office PowerPoint 2007 presentation within a Groove 2007 workspace. You can view and work on a presentation collaboratively and in real time with your teammates while taking advantage of presence information and instant messaging capabilities built right into your workspace.
Share Your Presentations with Confidence
