9.3 Viewing Slide Shows with
PowerPoint Mobile
With PowerPoint Mobile, you can open and view slide show
presentations created on your PC in *.ppt and *.pps format with
PowerPoint '97 and later.
Many presentation elements built into the slide shows such as
slide transitions and animations will play back on the device. If the
presentation is set up as a timed slide show, one slide will advance to
the next automatically. Links to URLs are also supported.
PowerPoint features not supported on the device include:
• Notes. Notes written for slides will not be visible.
• Rearranging or editing slides. PowerPoint Mobile is a viewer only.
• File formats. Files created in *.ppt format earlier than PowerPoint
'97 and HTML files in *.htm and *.mht formats are not supported.
To start a slide show presentation
1. Tap Start > Programs > PowerPoint Mobile.
2. In the presentation list, tap the slide show you want to view.
3. Tap the current slide to advance to the next slide.
If the presentation is set up as a timed slide show, slides will advance
automatically.
