Welcome!

Welcome to Presentations! You have acquired a presentation graphics program that combines user-friendliness with a practical scope of features and high compatibility with common programs!

You can use Presentations to quickly create impressive and informative presentations. From two-slide presentations to dynamic multimedia slide shows, Presentations provides easy-to-use tools that enable you to produce professional presentations.

Presentations is also highly compatible with Microsoft PowerPoint. You can easily reuse existing PowerPoint presentations and can always open, edit and save presentations which you receive in PowerPoint format from colleagues, customers or friends.

Note: This manual was written in order to describe how to use the program via the new ribbon user interface. A description of its use via classic menus with toolbars can only be found in older manuals.

Tip: A table in the appendix shows you which ribbon command corresponds to which menu command:
Ribbon commands and corresponding menu commands

Note: Some features have been disabled in SoftMaker FreeOffice (the free version of SoftMaker Office). Features that are not available in the free version are marked with a red box like this one.
