Make Presenting Easier With PowerPoint’s Presenter View

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could view your speaker notes and slides as you delivered a PowerPoint presentation without having to print a copy of them? The Presenter view in PowerPoint lets you do just that. You can maintain your own view of a presentation on one monitor while the audience views the slide show on a second monitor.

The Presenter view in PowerPoint offers the following features:

• Thumbnails of slides
• The slide currently being shown to the audience
• An End Show button
• A black-out button that can temporarily darken the audience screen
• The slide that will be displayed to the audience next
• Slide number
• Elapsed time since the start of the presentation
• Speaker notes

With all those features, you are surely interested in using Presenter view when delivering presentations. In order to do so, your computer must meet the following requirements:

• Your computer must support multiple monitors
• The operating system must support multiple displays
• You must enable support for multiple monitors through the Display settings
• You must turn on Presenter view (as is described below)

To turn on Presenter View in PowerPoint 2003:

1. Within PowerPoint, click Set Up Show from the Slide Show menu.
2. Under Multiple Monitors, click the Show Presenter View check box.
3. In the Display slide show on list, click the monitor you want the slide show presentation to appear on.
