Northwind Traders is a retailer of high-quality outdoor apparel and accessories for men, women, and children. The company has six stores in the
Minneapolis–St. Paul area and a thriving online presence. As an assistant
general manager, you help oversee the company’s daily operations, hire
and train new employees, and develop strategic plans. You also perform
day-to-day functions assigned by the general manager. Your job frequently
requires you to present information to an audience—for example, when
training new workers on company policies or when providing executives
with information about revenue or expenses. These duties often require
©thinair28/iStockphoto
you to create presentations from scratch, and PowerPoint lets you do that in several ways. In this lesson,
you will learn different methods for creating presentations. You will also learn how to organize the slides in
a presentation, add notes to your slides, select printing
S options, preview a slide show, and save a presentation for the first time.

Lesson 2
CREATING A NEW BLANK PRESENTATION
When you start PowerPoint, its Start screen appears. If you click Blank Presentation at that point,
or press the Esc key, a new, blank presentation appears, containing a single slide. The fastest and
simplest way to create a new presentation is to start with a blank presentation. You can add text to
the presentation and then format the slides later.
The Bottom Line
1.1.1
Creating a Blank Presentation
How do you create a new
blank presentation?
You can use the single slide that opens with a new, blank presentation to begin creating your new
presentation. In this exercise, you will learn how to open a blank presentation.

There are two advantages to using
H a blank presentation to start a slide show. First, PowerPoint
creates a blank presentation every time the program starts, so you always have immediate access to
U by just pressing Esc at startup. Second, because the presentathe first slide of a new presentation
tion is not formatted (meaning there
A are no backgrounds, colors, or pictures), you can focus on
writing your text. Many experienced PowerPoint users prefer to start with a blank presentation
because they know they can format their slides after the text is finished.

Changing a Slide’s Layout8
Most slides have a layout—a predefi
9 ned arrangement of placeholders for text or objects (such
as charts or pictures). PowerPoint has a variety of built-in layouts that you can use at any time.
0
Layouts are shown in the Layout gallery as thumbnails —small pictures showing each available
layout. (A gallery is a collectionB
of thumbnail images.) Choose the layout that is best suited to
display the text or objects you want to place on the slide. You can change a slide’s layout at any
U
time to arrange text or objects on the slide exactly the way you want. The following exercise
shows you how to apply a different layout to the current slide.
STEP BY STEP
Choose a Different Layout
USE the new, blank presentation that is still open from the previous exercise.
1. Click the Home tab to make it active, if necessary, and then click Layout. A drop-down
menu (called a gallery ) appears, displaying PowerPoint’s default layouts (see Figure 2-4).
The title of the gallery is Office Theme, indicating that all these layouts come from the
default theme (named Office).

object.

You will work with other slide layouts in Lesson 4.
You can change a slide’s layout whether the slide is blank or contains text. If the slide already has
text, PowerPoint will fit the text into the new layout’s placeholders. If the new layout does not have
an appropriate placeholder for the existing content, the existing content remains on the slide, but
it is not part of the layout.
Adding Text to a Blank Slide
If a blank slide has one or more text placeholders, you can easily add text to the slide. To enter text,
just click the sample text in the placeholder, and then type your text. In this exercise, you will
enter text into a blank slide’s placeholders to create a set of discussion points for a meeting of store
managers. The slide you work with in this exercise has a title placeholder and a content placeholder
that can hold text and other types of content.

Take Note
If you click any of the icons in the lower placeholder, PowerPoint will display tools for adding
non-text content, such as a table or chart. These types of content are covered in later lessons. The
icons disappear after you insert content into the placeholder.

Lesson 2
Even when a multiple-slide presentation is not needed at a meeting, displaying an agenda, a list of
discussion points, or a list of breakout rooms can be helpful for the group.
SAVING A PRESENTATION
The Bottom Line
When you create a new presentation, it exists only in your computer’s memory. If you want to keep
the presentation, you must save it on a disk or to a network location or flash drive. After you save
a file, you can close it, then reopen it again later and resume working on it. The following exercises
show you how to save a new presentation to a disk, how to save the presentation in a different file
format, and how to work with PowerPoint’s Save options.
Saving a New Presentation for the First Time
When you save a presentation for the first time, PowerPoint displays the Save As dialog box so you
can give the presentation a name before saving it. In this exercise, you will name and save the
presentation you created earlier. S

When you save a presentation (or any type of document), be sure to give it a name that describes
its contents. Giving the presentation a name that describes its contents will help you identify your
presentations more easily when you are trying to find the right one.
Choosing a Different File Format
PowerPoint can save presentations in several different file formats. In this exercise, you will save
your presentation in a format that is compatible with earlier versions of PowerPoint.

Lesson 2
Take Note
Because you are saving the presentation in a different file format, it is not necessary to give it a new
name. Files of different formats can have the same file name. This exercise renames it anyway.
5. Select the file’s name in the File name box, delete the name, and then type Old Format
Discussion Points.
6. Click Save, and then close the presentation.
PAUSE. LEAVE PowerPoint open to use in the next exercise.
By default, PowerPoint 2013 saves presentations in a type of XML format, which is not compatible
with versions of PowerPoint prior to 2007. If you want to be able to use a presentation with an
older version of PowerPoint, you can save it by using the PowerPoint 97-2003 Presentation file
format. (PowerPoint 2007 and 2010 use the same XML-based format as PowerPoint 2013, so no
special version is necessary to share with users of PowerPoint 2007 or 2010.)
You can save a presentation in other formats as well. For example, if you select the PowerPoint
Show format, the presentation will S
always open in Slide Show view, rather than in Normal view.
You can also save a presentation as a template, or as a series of graphics, or in a macro-enabled
M
format.

Changing the Default File Format
PowerPoint has settings that control the default file location, the default file format, and more. If
you find yourself frequently changing the file location or file type when you save a presentation, it
may be worth your time to changeJthe settings in PowerPoint that specify the defaults. In the
following exercise, you learn how toO

4. In the Default local file location text box, take note of the location referenced.
Take Note
By default, files are stored in the Documents (or My Documents) folder for the current user. In
Windows Vista and Windows 7, this is the C:UsersusernameDocuments folder, where username
is the current user. That is what appears as the default in Figure 2-9, for example.
5. (Optional) Change the location in the Default local file location text box to the location
where you are storing your completed work for this course. If you do this, you will not
have to change the location for saving and opening files every time you want to save or
open files for class exercises and projects.
6. Click OK to close the dialog box.
7. Click Save, then close the presentation.
PAUSE. LEAVE PowerPoint open to use in the next exercise.
You can choose to create regular PowerPoint 2013 presentations, PowerPoint 97-2003 presentations,
macro-enabled presentations, Strict Open XML presentations, or OpenDocument presentations
by default. OpenDocument is aS
widely accepted generic format for presentation files, useful for
sharing files with people who useM
OpenOffice and other freeware office suites. Strict Open XML is
a variation of that.
I
You can set a default save location
Tof any accessible drive, including not only folders on your hard
disk, but also network locations and removable drives. (It is not usually a good idea to set the
default location to a drive that H
is not always available, however.) The location you specify will
appear in both the Save As and Open
, dialog boxes by default.
Also in the Save options, you can set an interval at which PowerPoint autosaves your work.
Autosaving helps PowerPoint recover
J any work that would otherwise be lost if your PC shuts off
or crashes while there are unsaved changes to a presentation. The default interval is 10 minutes.
