A. About creating a PowerPoint presentation from a Word Outline
1. PowerPoint uses the heading styles in your Word document
a) Heading styles are applied when you use numbered outlines
(1) Heading styles are already turned on for you in this template.
(2) For example, each paragraph formatted with the Heading 1 style becomes the title of a new slide, each Heading 2 becomes the first level of text, and so on.
B. Procedure
1. Open the document you want to use to create a PowerPoint presentation.
2. On the File menu, point to Send To, and then click Microsoft PowerPoint.
C. This procedure makes it easy for you to create a PowerPoint presentation based on the notes you’ve prepared for your speech in Word.
IIII. Main Point 3: Creating an outline from an existing document allows you to build on work you’ve already done
A. If you use heading styles to create longer documents, you can see a document’s organization in Outline view, and use it to prepare your speech.
B. To learn more about Outline view, see Microsoft Word Help.
