Audio in presentations

Using audio in presentations
Adobe Presenter lets you add narration, music, step-by-step instructions, or almost any sound to your projects. You
can use audio to provide instructions or to emphasize key points in the presentation. In general, sound can be as
individual and flexible as any other presentation component.
You can use audio in Presenter presentations in a variety of ways. For example, Presenter can help you with the
following tasks:
• Adding sound to an individual slide
• Adding special sounds to quizzes for correct and incorrect answers
Presenter lets you record your own audio files (using some simple equipment) or import existing files. Recorded
files are saved in mp3 format. Imported files can be in WAV or mp3 format. Stereo files are imported as stereo, and
mono files are imported as mono.
Note: Files imported in WAV format are converted to mp3 when a presentation is published. Final published presen-
tations only play mp3 files.
Audio files included in presentations are saved within the audio assets folder. The PPCX file contains metadata
about audio files. Presentations with a PPC file must be converted to PPCX to enable Adobe Presenter features. If
you move or copy presentation files or the assets folder, be sure to include the audio assets folder. (Moving or
copying the audio assets folder without the PPCX file may lead to problems.)
After you add audio to a presentation, you can synchronize the timing with other content, such as animations. For
example, if your presentation contains PowerPoint animations, such as text that "flies in," you can synchronize the
animations with the audio. (For more information, see
Presenter also contains features that enable you to add silent periods to audio files and to normalize audio for all
slides so that the sound level is consistent.

Add audio files to a presentation

You can quickly add existing WAV or mp3 format audio files to a presentation. Simply import the files and use them
as opening music, narration, instructions, or for any other purposes.
In PowerPoint, open a presentation (PPT or PPTX file).
