HP mp3130 manual Reducing large graphics in a PowerPoint file

•If the slide includes large graphic images or uses several fonts, the slide may require more memory than available in the projector. Try using fewer fonts, or try using fonts that use less memory (you can check font file sizes by looking in the font folder on the memory card). Or try reducing the memory size of the graphics (see the next topic below).

•Certain PowerPoint features are not supported while presenting a PowerPoint PPT file from a memory card. Try editing the slide to use supported features (see the second topic below).

Reducing large graphics in a PowerPoint file

A large graphic image may not display in a PowerPoint presentation shown from a memory card due to memory requirements on the projector. You can use an editor to create a smaller image file. Or you can try the following steps in PowerPoint to reduce the size of an image.

1.Right-click the graphic, then select Copy.

2.Click Edit > Paste Special, and select the option to paste in PNG format.

3.Delete the old image.

An alternative solution is creating a mobile presentation PDB file.

Selecting PowerPoint features for a memory card presentation

When you show a PC-free presentation from a memory card, the projector has available only the information stored on the memory card—it does not have access to the Microsoft PowerPoint application. Although the projector provides most of the popular features of PowerPoint 2002, not all features are supported during a memory card presentation. To avoid unexpected problems, select features that are supported for either a PowerPoint PPT file or a mobile presentation PDB file. See the table of supported PowerPoint features at the end of this document.

Creating mobile presentations for a handheld organizer or memory card

You can use HP Wireless Presenter-to-Go to create mobile presentations from PowerPoint. In some situations, a mobile presentation you create may omit certain PowerPoint elements, such as special fonts, vertically oriented text, or arrowheads. If this occurs, try choosing a lower animation setting in the Wireless Presenter-to-Go creator window.

Creating mobile presentations from portrait documents

If you want to create a mobile presentation (PDB file) by printing from an application, you should check the page setup first. If the page has portrait orientation (vertical layout), you should do one of the following to avoid losing the bottom of all pages in your presentation:

•Before printing, change the document to landscape orientation (horizontal layout), or

•In the print window, change the printer properties to use portrait orientation (vertical layout).
