Help & Info about Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 for windows

  • Is Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 free?

    No, this program is not a free one. It can be purchased from the Microsoft website, standalone, for the price of $129.99. It can, also, be included as part of a Microsoft Office package, which includes PowerPoint and other Microsoft programs (such as Word), for a subscription fee of as low as $7 per month.
  • Can Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 open Keynote files?

    No, this program cannot open Keynote files as Keynote is an Apple-only product. However, there is a workaround. If the user were to open their Keynote presentation and then export the file to PowerPoint (by changing the file type to .ppt), it will then open in PowerPoint.
  • Can slides be changed to portrait?

    Whilst slides are automatically set up as landscape, they can be modified to a portrait view. This can be done by opening PowerPoint 2016, selecting the 'view' tab, then click 'normal'. From there, click 'design' and then 'slide size' and then open 'custom slide size'. In the dialog box, select 'portrait'.
  • Can Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 play MP4 files?

    Yes, the program will be able to play MP4 files if the Quicktime Player is installed on the user's computer, or if the MP4 file is converted to a '.WMV' file.
  • Can Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 read text aloud?

    Yes, the program is able to read text aloud, as are its sister titles, Word 2016 and Outlook 2016. This is done through the 'text-to-speech' feature which is available through the 'commands' button.
  • What slide size is used in Microsoft PowerPoint 2016?

  • Is there a free way to view presentations?
