4.1 How do I play PowerPoint presentations on my display? 

4.1.1

 

Option 1 (for plain slides with no animation):   

You  can  save  the  PowerPoint  presentation  as  a  JPEG  File  Interchange  Format  (.JPG).  Microsoft 
PowerPoint software allows the user to do this   
1) Create or open a PowerPoint presentation.   
2) Click File >Save As   
3) Enter a File name   
4) Click on “Save as type” scroll down and find the file extension “JPEG file interchange format”, as 
shown in the image below.   

 

5) Click Save.   
6) A message will appear asking if you would like to save all slides as JPEG’s   
7) Once you have selected your option, The JPEG images will be saved and are ready to use within 
a playlist or to upload to a storage device. 

Note: For the best portrait resolution, you can use this PowerPoint Page Setup: Width 42.6cm; 
Height 24cm (16:9 Ratio) 

4.1.2

 

Options 2 (for presentations with animation):   

You  can  convert  the  PowerPoint  presentation  to  a  MPEG  video  clip.  For  the  best  display  quality 
you should use the MPEG2 format which gives the best display quality. We suggest that you use 
the following software: 

Software Name: Wondershare PPT2DVD
