Share PowerPoint 2016 presentations online

PowerPoint 2016 offers several options to enhance or even completely change the way you deliver presentations. Instead of displaying the slideshow as usual, you can choose to present it as a video or even online so that others can view it remotely. Whichever presentation you choose, you can freely customize your slideshow (remove or reorder slides). All of these options can help you create a much more engaging and professional presentation.

Export the presentation as a video

The Create a Video feature allows you to save presentations as videos. This feature can be useful because it allows the audience to watch the presentation whenever they want. To ensure the audience has enough time to view each slide, you may need to rehearse or record the slideshow before using this feature.
