RE: Codecs

Hi Barrie. Thanks for your query. Below is a weblink which will lead you through the dialog boxes to a list of codecs on an individual PC. You need to cross check the codecs on your machine with the presenters machine, to make sure videos that are compressed will run.

Hope this helps,

PowerPoint tip:

Display pictures inside shapes

Here is a suggestion for adding a professional touch to your presentations: displaying pictures within shapes. This can look particularly good if you use pictures within circles or stars.

To create this effect, draw a shape on your slide from the Drawing toolbar.

Click on the Fill Color button found on the Draw Toolbar usually found at the bottom of the screen; or alternatively right-click on the shape and select 'Format Autoshape'.

Select the Fill Effects option then the Picture tab. Use the 'Select picture' button to find the picture on your computer, then click Insert. Selecting the 'Lock picture aspect ratio' helps to keep the picture in proportion.
