Hints and Tips for Best Results

  • Prepare the presentation as if it were intended to be an online web page. This ensures the flow will make sense during the session, and when viewed from the web.

  • Avoid large picture inserts (reducing the size of each inserted graphic helps with downloading).

  • Use multiple slides instead of multiple overlays on the same slide. Otherwise, the result does not make sense to the person viewing from the web.

  • Avoid animations, motions and fancy transitions.

  • When deciding on font size, keep the back row of your session in mind. Will they be able to read the message that you are trying to communicate?

  • Avoid graphically intense backgrounds that make it difficult to view. For example, use the header and footer capabilities of your presentation tool to insert information on every slide, instead of inserting a graphic image as the background.

  • As you prepare your presentation for PDF conversion (if you choose to submit it for online viewing), consider using the "Screen" format in the properties, instead of iBook or Print formats.

  • Avoid embedding fonts in your PDF.

  • If you would like your speakers notes to appear, please prepare the file in that format for submission.

  • Presentations with external links or font references will not be included.

  • Include contact information in your presentation.
