Beyond the basics

9-19

In a word processing document, the number of slides matches the number of
pages. For all other document types, you need to set the number of slides you
want to include in your presentation.

Enter the information you want on each page. To see what appears on each
slide, choose Page View from the Window menu.

Setting up slides

Once you have created slides on the pages of a document, you can set up
the slide show, reorder the slides, and specify visual effects. If you have
QuickTime installed, you can also include QuickTime movies in the slide
show. To run a slide show using the preset options, see “Showing the slides
using one computer” on page 9-21.

For this type
of document

Do this

Draw

Choose Document from the Format menu, and then type the
number of pages (one page per slide) across and down. The
slide show is preset to run across first and then down.

Paint

Choose Document from the Format menu, and then type the
number of pixels (72 to an inch) across and down. Larger
paintings may appear on multiple slides.

Spreadsheet

Choose Document from the Format menu, and then type the
number of columns across and rows down. With the preset
column width and row height, a single page (slide) contains 7
columns across and 50 rows down. Larger spreadsheets may
appear on multiple slides.

Database

Set up a layout that displays one record per page (slide)—one
record does not automatically equal one slide.
