  1. Display the PowerPoint file in Slide Show view.

    The PowerPoint slide show and the Slide Show toolbar appear.

  2. To display the next slide, press Next on the Slide Show toolbar.

    OR

    To display the previous slide, press Previous on the Slide Show toolbar.

  3. Write or draw on your interactive product’s screen.

  4. Do the following:

    • To insert writing into the PowerPoint slide show as typed text, right-click your writing, and then select an Inject…Here option.
    • To insert a drawing into the PowerPoint slide show as an image, press Menu on the Slide Show toolbar, and then select Insert Drawing as Image.

    • To insert a blank page, press Menu , and then select PowerPoint Commands > Add Blank Slide.

    The Print Slide menu command isn’t available if you’re using PowerPoint Viewer software because this software allows you to view files on a read-only basis.
