PowerPoint 2013 Preview


Ready to create more striking presentations? Select a theme, add a design variant, align text and pictures, and more. Work on the same version with others at the same time, and present with more confidence and control.

Design

Use new wide-screen themes and variants, add videos, pictures, and shapes, and create customized icons using powerful tools.



Start Screen The new Start experience helps you jump-start the creative process with a collection of new themes.

Theme Variants Choose from alternative color schemes and then apply the look you like with a single click.

Alignment Guides Exhibit a designer’s touch by aligning shapes, text boxes, and other graphics with text.

Merge Shapes Use the Union, Combine, Fragment, Intersect, and Subtract tools to merge two or more shapes into the shape you want.


Impress

An improved Presenter View helps you to stay organized, focused on your presentation, and keep your audience engaged.

Slide Zoom Direct your audience’s attention to your main point. Zoom in on a diagram, chart, or graphic with a couple of clicks, and then zoom out just as smoothly.

Navigation Grid Easily switch slides—in or out of sequence—from a grid that only you see, your audience sees only what you’ve selected.

Auto-extend When you project to a second screen, the settings ensure that your presentation appears on the correct screen.

Work together

Improved collaboration tools make it easier to work with others on the same presentation at the same time on different PCs. And if someone doesn’t have PowerPoint? No problem. Just project your presentation right to their browser.

Reply Comment Place and track comments next to the text you’re discussing so everyone can readily see who replied to whom, and when.

Simplified Sharing Your presentations are saved online to SkyDrive or SharePoint by default.* Send everyone a single link to the same file, along with their viewing and editing permissions, and be assured that everyone sees the latest version
 
PowerPoint Web App Coauthoring You and your team can work together on the same presentation at the same time from the desktop or in the browser with the PowerPoint Web App.*
