10. Getting the Most out of your Presenter-to-Go
Presentation (Power User Tips)
By now you must have learned a lot about using the Presenter-to-Go solution. As a power-user, if you
are wondering, how you can use the product most effectively, here are some tips:
Making Mobile Presentations look good
The mobile presentation format created on the computer uses compression techniques to efficiently
transfer and present from the handheld. Here are some tips to make the process more efficient:
• When composing slides, keep the background simple. Don't use textured or pictorial
backgrounds as they increase the size and the processing time for each slide.
• Expect slides with photographs to generate larger size presentation files and greater waits for
the slide to be ready to present. Full size pictures can take up to 8-10 seconds on a standard
Visor.
Creating a Mobile Presentations from multiple applications
The ability to create a single presentation from multiple applications seamlessly on your computer is one
of the strengths of this product. Imagine that you are making a sales presentation for a Product; you may
take the following steps:
• Create a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation on the PC called "Sales_Prezo", with personal-
reference notes. Click on the "Presenter-to-Go" icon on the tool-bar and CREATE the
mobile presentation. DO NOT QUEUE or INSTALL the presentation
• Go to your Spec. Sheet of the Product (e.g. Microsoft Word), and "print" to the Presenter-to-
Go printer. Before pressing the CREATE button on your Windows-compatible computer,
click on the "Sales_Prezo" in the Presentations-List. Now Sales_Prezo will appear on the
"Append to:" line. Press the APPEND button instead of the CREATE button. The Spec.
Sheet is now appended to the "Sales_Prezo". On your Mac, to append the presentation to an
existing presentation, select "Append pages to existing presentation". This will open the
"Presenter-to-Go Archive List". Select "Sales_Prezo" to append the new document to your
existing file and select "OK".
• Go to the Pricing sheet of the Product (e.g. Microsoft Excel®), and "print" to the Presenter-
to-Go printer. On your Windows-Compatible computer, click on the "Sales_Prezo" in the
Presentations-List, and press the APPEND button and the Pricing Sheet is now appended to
the "Sales_Prezo". On your Mac, select "Append pages to existing presentation", opening the
"Presenter-to-Go Archive List". Select "Sales_Prezo" to append the new document to your
existing file and select "OK".
• Got to any HTML pages as appropriate, and "print" to the Presenter-to-Go printer. On your
Windows-Compatible computer, click on the "Sales_Prezo" in the Presentations-List, and
press the APPEND button and the HTML is now appended to the "Sales_Prezo". On your
Mac, select "Append pages to existing presentation", opening the "Presenter-to-Go Archive
List". Select "Sales_Prezo" to append the new document to your existing file and select
"OK".
• Now VIEW the "Sales_Prezo" from the Presenter-to-Go Application, and you will find that
all the slides from different applications are available in one single presentation.
• You can also RESTORE presentations from archived Presentations, and append to them.
You cannot, however, combine two existing presentations.
