new blank document has design template

G

Guest

Every time I create a new Powerpoint presentation by clicking "New Blank
Document" on the task pane, it automatically fills with the information from
the crayon design template. I can't get rid of it.

I had a question in a foreign Office group concerning power point.

The OP said the following.

He made a presentation in power point with moving Gif's but when he transferred it to a CD the presentation did not play(gif's)

Below you see my answer and his reply. Can you advise please

Thank you for the answer. What I did is that I made a .pps slideshow, so I
did not want to edit the presentation anymore. I planed to write it onto a CD
and then I can use my CD as a presentation CD, so I can run the presentation
from the CD whithout copiing those onto the HDD of the PC.
Can I do this? I feel if I burn the .pps file I do not need to set up the
files writeable.

I'm a little confused about your exchange with the poster having trouble
with moving GIFs, but I suspect the problem has to do with the version of
PPT used to play the file. Each version of PPT that can play animated GIFs
plays them differently (which is a total pain!).

http://www.soniacoleman.com/Tutorials/PowerPoint/animated_gifs/gifs.htm has
specific information about the problem. The poster will probably need to
edit the GIF header so it plays properly using the 2003 PPT Viewer. The PPT
97 Viewer won't play animated GIFs.

You can save your file as a PPS file if you want, but you still need a PPT
Viewer to play the file from the CD. PPS alone is just a PPS file; it still
needs PPT or a PPT Viewer to play it.

If you are using PPT 2003, you can use Package for CD to create an autorun
CD with your presentation and the Viewer. Everything runs from the CD, which
helps solve the problems with the animated GIFs, among other things. If you
aren't using PPT 2003, you'll need to create the autorun CD manually so the
Viewer will play the PPS or PPT file. Instructions here:

Because when you put it on a CD the CD itself becomes a Read Only media.
To not to let it happen you would need to write it to the CD with an
appropriate Software like Nero 6.6 as an example where you can set the write
not have the Read Only interface.
