Merging presentations

I quite often merge one or more presentations (keeping the key source formatting) to create a master file for use at events so the presentations run on straight after each other. I would like to know if there's an automatic way to start the ren-umbering process of slides at the beginning of each new presentation? At the moment I have to re-number them manually.

RE: Merging presentations

Hi Christie

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

I have a couple of questions about your query - if you can reply back to me then I will be in a better position to be able to look into this for you.

1. When you say you merge the presentations together, how are you doing this (i.e. what steps do you follow)?

2. Are you referring to the number for the slides when they are on screen, or when the presentation is printed, or both?

thanks
Amanda

PowerPoint tip:

Embedding fonts in a presentation

If you create a PowerPoint presentation which is likely to be viewed on other computers, there can be problems with displaying the font/s you have used in your presentation when it is opened on other machines.

You can embed the fonts you use in your presentation in order to try and get around this issue.

When you go to save your presentation (File - Save as), go to the Tools button at the top of the Save As dialogue box and select Save Options. Under 'Font options for current document only', tick the Embed TrueType fonts option, then select the secondary option underneath that applies best to your situation.

Click OK, then Save.
