#64: Specifying a Theme
Change It Once—Use It Forever
Rather than leaving the default Adobe Presenter preload text, or customizing
the text for each presentation, you can modify an Adobe Presenter program file
to change the text for all your presentations. Here’s how:
1.
Locate the Themes folder on your hard drive:
•
On Windows XP, in Windows Explorer, locate C:\Documents and Settings\
[user name]
\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Presenter\
Themes.
•
On Windows Vista, from the desktop click Start > Run and type
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Adobe\Adobe Presenter
. Click OK to close the Run
dialog and open the folders; double-click on the Themes folder.
2.
Right-click on the language.xml file and open the file using an XML editor or
Notepad.
3.
Look for the
<language id=”en”>
section close to the start of the file,
and type this code, inserting your custom text as the value:
<uitext name=”ADOBE_PRESENTER” value=”Insert Your Cus-
tom Text”/>
4.
Save and close the language.xml file.
5.
Back in PowerPoint, save and publish the presentation to your computer,
selecting the View output option.
6.
Click the logo to test the new content.
2.
Open the vconfig.xml file
in an XML editor or Note-
pad.
3.
Scroll down about one-
half page to the
<lan-
guage id=”en”>
section, and type this
code on a blank line,
inserting your custom
text as the value:
<
uitext name=”ADOBE_
PRESENTER” value=
”Insert Your Custom
Text”/>
4.
Save and close the vcon-
fig.xml file.
5.
Open the index.htm
Web page holding the
presentation, located
at c:\Documents and
Settings\
[user name]
\
My Documents\My
Adobe Presentations\
[PresentationName]
.
When the page opens,
view your custom text as
the presentation loads.
Note
If you have too many custom themes, select the names in the Theme
Name pop-up menu, click Delete, click Yes to confirm, and click OK to
remove it. You can’t delete the default themes.
