Presentation Director

Presentation Director is a display configuration utility that enables you to give presentations conveniently. It
also enables you to create and manage the display schemes. However, by default, Presentation Director has
some predefined presentation schemes. You can apply them to your presentation with no need to set up a
new scheme. To apply a presentation scheme, you can also use F6.
To open Presentation Director, click Start ➙ All Programs ➙ ThinkVantage ➙ Presentation Director.
Note: If your computer is a Windows 7 model, Presentation Director is not supported because the Windows
7 operating system handles the external displays instead.
