Distributing Presentation Files

The InterWrite presentation files you create can be printed for local
distribution, or emailed to anyone, anywhere.

Use the 

Page Sorter

 tool to review the presentation file. The pages

in the presentation file can be sorted, moved, copied, and deleted
in Page Sorter. When the file pages have been arranged to your
satisfaction, you can use the Page Sorter’s print option to print it,
you can export it to one of several file formats, or you can email it
directly from Page Sorter.

The native file format of saved presentation files has the .GWB
extension and can be viewed in Windows with the GWB InterWrite
Reader. This is an application that is part of the InterWrite software
suite and is installed when the InterWrite software is installed on
the Windows operating system. The InterWrite Reader is also
available for download at 

www.gtcocalcomp.com

 in the 

InterWrite

Interactive Products

 section, under the 

Support 

tab. Click on any

of the products to display the 

Technical Support

 section, where

you can access 

Software Downloads

 for your specific operating

system. InterWrite Reader can be distributed freely with your
presentation files. You can also save your presentation files in a
PDF format, which can be read by Adobe’s Acrobat Reader, and
you can export your presentation files to a variety of graphics and
HTML formats.

Now, everyone can stay in the information loop, whether they
were able to attend the presentation or not.

What is PRS?

InterWrite PRS is an Audience Response System—a comprehensive
response system for electronically testing, polling, and surveying a
group of people. It can be used in conjunction with InterWrite to
take a survey of the audience response to the presentation, or to
test the level of comprehension after a lesson presentation, for
example. Learn more about PRS by visiting our Web site.
