I am developing a powerpoint for a 42" Plasma screen and I
am wondering about seting up the screen. Do I need to
adjust for aspect ratio and how do I do that. What kind of
safe areas do I need to be aware of.
Also, since it is a plasma watch out for burn in. If you have logos or
other images that appear on multiple slides put them in different positions.
We have had many plasmas returned because of this.
It depends on the contrast of the static image. In some cases you can begin
to see a slight burn in a few hours. Something like the CNN logo. We had
some hotels put their logo on the Master for presentations and pretty soon
you could see it even after it had been removed.
Many of the "industrial
strength" plasmas have logic to help alleviate burn in but it does not get
rid of the problem. Large format LCDs are becoming more popular because of
this. They also use a lot less power and generate less heat. I still
prefer stone and chisel. ;-)

But ouch ... that fast, huh?
But if you keep hammering at the same spot, don't you get geoburnin? I'd have
taken it for granite.
width each time I redraw it. Yes it will eventually just "burn" a larger
area but it takes longer and my are usually tires first. <g>

Hee, hee. My arm gets tired also. "unusual dietary proclivities".
Proclivity: A natural inclination; predisposition. Hmm, ISTR lots of
misinformation, vague arm gestures and such during certain cullinary
sessions. I think proclivity might be stretching a bit but what the heck.
