Downloading and Installing the Internet Assistant for PowerPoint
Assistant for Microsoft PowerPoint
Overview
Use the Internet Assistant for Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows
95 to transform your PowerPoint slides into rich HTML pages
for publishing to the Web. Your presentations can be seen by anyone
using one of the popular Web browsers.
- Tell the world about yourself on the Web and do it
visually! Instead of creating a Web site with text-only HTML
pages, PowerPoint 95 and the PowerPoint Internet Assistant make
it easy to also create a set of exciting text-and-graphics Web
pages.
- While users tell us it's really easy to use PowerPoint to
create presentations, it's even easier to turn your slides into
Web pages -- simply select Export As HTML in PowerPoint
95. In addition to maintaining your designs, layouts, pictures
when PowerPoint turns your slides into HTML pages, hyperlinks
are automatically set up to jump from one slide to another
or to a related Web page! Just use Interactive Settings
when you create your slides in PowerPoint 95 to define the link.
No coding is involved - the Internet Assistant automatically creates
the image maps.
- Get better results using visual aids from your Web site.
Ever wish you could more effectively communicate your message
by showing something to your client or a potential client during
your phone conversations? The Internet Assistant for PowerPoint
95 is the ideal way to show them what you mean- just ask your
client to check out your Web site as you speak to them. Or, next
time you visit a client who surfs the Internet, instead of showing
up with overheads or a computer, arrive at the meeting with nothing!
Just ask if you can borrow their computer, as you connect to your
Web site and deliver your presentation in the client's office.
Downloading and Installing
the Internet Assistant for PowerPoint
Before you begin installation, make sure you've installed Microsoft PowerPoint
for Windows 95. The Internet Assistant won't work with PowerPoint
4.0 or earlier versions. If multiple users share a computer, you'll
need to install an Internet Assistant for each user needing this
functionality. You must also be able to write to your PowerPoint
directory, so some network installations and "run from CD"
installations won't be able to use this add-in.
- Close PowerPoint if it's running.
