This feature will enable you to play the PowerPoint on another computer with or without PowerPoint for it includes PowerPoint viewer in it.


When you choose File->Package for CD, you will see a dialog box.

This dialog gives you the option to Copy to a Folder on your hard drive, or to Copy directly to CD. As you see, linked files and the PowerPoint Viewer are included by default, regardless of which copy option you choose.

Choose "Add Files" if you have other files or presentations you want to include in the CD and they're not already linked to your presentation.

Even if you have inserted audio to the presentation, it will also included in the CD.

gdiplus.dll
intidate.dll
pptview.exe
ppvwintl.dll
pvreadme.htm
saext.dll
unicows.dll

are all the files the PowerPoint Viewer needs to run.

autorun.inf
play.bat
playlist.txt
