The Secret Life of PowerPoint

Many of us grew up with Microsoft. Even though some people hate Microsoft, there is something familiar and comforting about it.

For those of you who already have Microsoft Office for your Outlook, Word or Excel you also have Powerpoint. You may have even been using it to create the slides for your presentations, so you should be familiar with some of its features.

Are you using PowerPoint to its full potential?

Did you know that it can do more than just create presentation slides?

There are two things that I use PowerPoint for that are a bit unconventional but work really well.
1. Creating Printable and Downloadable PDF’s
2. Creating Social Graphics

The first trick to using Power Point in this way is to know how to change the slide size.
For PDF’s you can set it to 8.5×11
And graphics… any size you need.

And the next trick is to know how to export these files into the appropriate format.
.PDF – Best for printable/downloadable documents
.PNG or .JPG – Best for images

I have created some guide sheets for you to show you how to do adjust Power Point and use it in this new way.
And I created them using PowerPoint (the program).

*Note: These features are not available for the online (web based) versions of PowerPoint. Only the program. For those of you who don’t have PowerPoint, or would prefer to not use Microsoft for anything; Google Sheets can also do these really cool things.
