Presentations have become an integral part of the life of a modern person. They are used in educational activities, educational work, during various events. Given such a wide range of applications for presentations, the question of which program to use to create them will be appropriate.
Presentation is their job
There are many programs for creating computer presentations. Among them are the famous Microsoft PowerPoint, and Photodex ProShow Producer, and OpenOffice Impress, and Digistudio and many others. What are their pros and cons, similarities and differences? The answer to these questions can be found only by getting to know them better.
The most common presentation software today remains Microsoft PowerPoint, which is mainly used by people using the standard set of applications included in the Microsoft office. PowerPoint has a lot of features. You can create an unlimited number of slides in it, there is a "slide designer" function. There is an extensive library of templates, which can be replenished by going to the official website of the developer. In addition, you can add music, animated transitions between slides to a presentation created using PowerPoint, set the time of presentation of each slide, and set up a frame change mode. In terms of volume, ready-made presentations are much lighter than works created with the help of other programs. And this is just a small part of all PowerPoint options available to the user.
The analogue of this program is OpenOffice Impress, which operates on the basis of the Linux operating system. However, given the youth of the "axis" itself, and it appeared on the market not so long ago, it is still worth expecting a lot from the presentation tool due to its imperfection. At the moment, the application is at the stage of its further development, and who knows, maybe in a few years this program will surpass its famous predecessor. Time will tell what will happen next.
In the meantime, let me introduce another useful program for creating presentations - Photodex ProShow Producer. This is one of the most popular and multifunctional software that allows you to edit professional video clips and make colorful slideshows and presentations from photos and music files. It is also worth noting a number of its advantages, such as support for the RAW format, the ability to create interactive titles, manual control of the presentation, the ability to go one-click on the image caption to the selected slide, overlay "watermarks", support for multiple layers of images, text, etc.. NS. The finished presentation can be burned both for viewing on a computer and on DVD.
They are worth remembering
There are also many other programs for creating presentations, both paid and distributed free of charge. Whether you use them or not is up to you. But getting to know them will not be superfluous. So, for presentations, you can use the "PhotoSHOW" program, in which the duration of each slide is separately adjusted, there is a rich library of templates for image decoration, there are functions for creating text and editing photos.
Kingsoft Presentation also creates presentations, but working with it can be complicated by the lack of Russian in the interface. The program is in English, but if you have some experience with presentations, then making it in Kingsoft Presentation will not be a big problem. By the way, it is worth noting that presentations created in Kingsoft Presentation are fully compatible with other applications.
Digistudio is a German program created on the new engine, distributed free of charge. The advantage of the application is that it is compatible with raster graphics and vector animation.
You can also try and evaluate other presentation software. These are Proshow Gold, Microsoft PowerPoint Web App, PowerPoint Viewer, Wondershare Flash Gallery Factory and others. Naturally, in this case, you will rate these applications.
