GETTING THE BEST OUT OF EASY ADVERTISER
Easy Advertiser works with HD Ready monitors that have a resolution of 1360 x 768 pixels. For you, this means
that you can display very sharp still or moving images on your screen to impress your guests or customers. In
order to get stunning results here are few guide lines to follow.
USING MICROSOFT POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS AS INPUTS
You need to know the following. When you have installed Microsoft PowerPoint on your PC, the default
setting in PowerPoint assumes a 4:3 display: four units wide by three units high. Your HD ready monitor is
16:9: Sixteen units wide by nine units high. If you don’t change anything in Microsoft PowerPoint your
presentation would appear like this:
To the left and right of your slide black bars will appear. You can avoid your presentation appearing like this by
changing the setting in PowerPoint to 16:9 before creating your slides. This is a simple operation. Dependant
on the country you live in, the height and width is expressed in inches or in centimeters.

Click on File > Page Setup

Change the width to either 35.99 cm or 14.17 inch

Change the height to either 20.32 cm or 8 inch
Now you can start making your own 16:9 PowerPoint slides that use the full resolution of the monitor.
