with Internet Assistant for Microsoft PowerPoint 95
This Internet Assistant works in all versions of Microsoft PowerPoint

for updated release information.
Overview
Use the Internet Assistant for Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows 95
to transform your PowerPoint slides into rich HTML pages for publishing
to the Web. Your presentations can be seen by anyone using one of the popular
Web browsers.
- Tell the world about yourself on the Web and do it visually!
Instead of creating a Web site with text-only HTML pages, PowerPoint 95
and the PowerPoint Internet Assistant make it easy to also create a set
of exciting text-and-graphics Web pages.
- While users tell us it's really easy to use PowerPoint to create presentations,
it's even easier to turn your slides into Web pages -- simply select Export
As HTML in PowerPoint 95. In addition to maintaining your designs,
layouts, pictures when PowerPoint turns your slides into HTML pages, hyperlinks
are automatically set up to jump from one slide to another or to
a related Web page! Just use Interactive Settings when you create
your slides in PowerPoint 95 to define the link. No coding is involved
- the Internet Assistant automatically creates the image maps.
- Get better results using visual aids from your Web site. Ever
wish you could more effectively communicate your message by showing something
to your client or a potential client during your phone conversations? The
Internet Assistant for PowerPoint 95 is the ideal way to show them what
you mean- just ask your client to check out your Web site as you speak
to them. Or, next time you visit a client who surfs the Internet, instead
of showing up with overheads or a computer, arrive at the meeting with
nothing! Just ask if you can borrow their computer, as you connect to your
Web site and deliver your presentation in the client's office.
Downloading and Installing
the Internet Assistant for PowerPoint
Before you begin installation, make sure you've installed Microsoft
PowerPoint for Windows 95. The Internet Assistant won't work with PowerPoint
4.0 or earlier versions. If multiple users share a computer, you'll need
to install an Internet Assistant for each user needing this functionality.
You must also be able to write to your PowerPoint directory, so some network
installations and "run from CD" installations won't be able to
use this add-in.
- Close PowerPoint if it's running.
- Download
pptia.exe(253K)
Start PowerPoint and open an existing file or create a new file. Notice
that the Export as HTML command is now on the File menu.
