Product Description

Re-Designed Interface
PowerPoint 2007 features a redesigned user interface with a new look and feel to make creating, presenting, and sharing presentations an easier and more intuitive experience. You can now enjoy all of the rich features and capabilities of PowerPoint in a streamlined, uncluttered workspace that minimizes distraction and helps you achieve the results you want more quickly and easily. PowerPoint offers a wealth of options that can help improve your business so you can create powerful, dynamic SmartArt diagrams as well as relationship, workflow, or hierarchy diagrams. You can even convert a bulleted list into a SmartArt diagram or modify and update existing diagrams. This new version also makes it easier than ever to take advantage of rich formatting options with the contextual diagramming menus.

PowerPoint Slide Libraries
Wish there were a better way to reuse content from one presentation to another? With PowerPoint Slide Libraries, you can store presentations as individual slides on a site supported by SharePoint Server 2007 and easily repurpose the content later from within PowerPoint. Not only does this cut down the time you spend creating presentations, but any slides you insert can remain synchronized with the server version to help ensure your content is always up to date. You can also use the Slide Libraries to share custom layouts with others so that your presentations always look sharp and professional.

Document Themes For a Consistent Look and Feel
Make sure your presentations command attention with just one click by using Document Themes to help you change the style of your entire presentation. Change the background color as well as the colors of diagrams, tables, charts, and fonts--even enhance the style of bullet points. By applying a theme, you can be confident that your entire presentation has a consistently professional look and feel.

New Tools and Effects
Dramatically modify shapes, text, and graphics with new tools and effects that grab attention. You can now manipulate and work with your text, tables, charts, and other presentation elements in much richer ways than ever before. PowerPoint 2007 makes these tools readily available through the streamlined user interface and contextual menus, so that in just a few clicks, your work can have greater impact.

Effectively Share Presentations
Significantly improve the way you and your team members share and process information by communicating with users across platforms and devices. First, you can help ensure broad communication with your PowerPoint presentations by converting your files to XML Paper Specification (XPS) and PDF, which lets you share with users on any software platform. Reduce your document sizes and improve file recovery at the same time by using the new, compressed Microsoft Office PowerPoint XML Format, which provide a tremendous savings to storage and bandwidth requirements, and reduces the burden on IT personnel. You can also fully interact with information stored in SharePoint Services anywhere, anytime. For added convenience, any changes you make to the presentation saved in Outlook will be reflected on the server version when you reconnect to your network.

Apply the Right Protections to Your Presentations
With PowerPoint 2007 and SharePoint Server 2007, you can send a presentation to your team for review or create a formal approval process and collect signatures on that presentation, making collaboration a smooth and easy process. You can also help protect the private information in your documents by detecting and removing unwanted comments, hidden text, or personally identifiable information using the Document Inspector. For added peace of mind, add a digital signature to your presentations to help ensure that their content remains the same after they leave your hands, or mark a presentation as "final" to prevent inadvertent changes. Finally, using content controls, you can create and deploy structured PowerPoint templates that guide users into entering the correct information, while helping to protect and preserve the information in the presentation that cannot be changed.
