Adobe Presenter 7

Change presentation settings

You can change settings, such as the title and summary, and some presentation behavior, such as pausing and looping, using the presentation settings dialog box.

  1. In PowerPoint, open a presentation (PPT or PPTX file).
  2. Select Adobe Presenter > Presentation Settings. (PowerPoint 2007 users select Adobe Presenter > Settings.)
  3. Click the Appearance tab.
    Title
    Type a name for the presentation.The title appears in the Presenter viewer.

    Summary
    Type a summary for the presentation. A summary is usually a short description of the presentation contents. This optional presentation summary is a useful organizational tool for authors. The summary appears only in the settings; it does not appear in the published presentation and is not visible to users.
    Note: The presentation summary does appear in Connect Pro Server after a presentation is published to the server. Summaries can be edited through Connect Pro Central. Presentation authors can search summaries and see the summary when viewing content information.

  4. Click the Playback tab.
    Auto Play On Start
    Select to have the presentation automatically begin playing when it is opened. (If this option is not selected, a presenter or users must click the Play button in the toolbar to start the presentation.)

    Loop Presentation
    Select to have the presentation replay continuously when opened.

    Include Slide Numbers In Outline
    Select to include the slide number within the Outline pane when the presentation is displayed.

    Pause After Each Animation
    If your presentation contains PowerPoint animations, select this option to pause the presentation automatically after the animations play. This is useful if you want to clearly define where the animation ends and the presentation begins again. (After clicking through each animation, you will need to click the Play button in the playbar to start the presentation again.)

    Duration Of Slide Without Audio Or Video
    Select an amount of time (in seconds) for slides without audio to appear. (By default, slides with audio play for the length of the associated audio file.)

  5. Click OK.
