Viewing, Printing, and Exporting Your Slideshow

5

To make the slideshow appear on the whole screen rather than in a window, select

“Enter full screen mode when opened.”

6

Choose a playback quality and file size from the Formats pop-up menu:

Full Quality, Large: Preserves the best playback quality, but these movies are large and
are therefore more difficult to transfer through email or across the web.
CD-ROM Movie, Medium: Best if you’re using a CD to send the slideshow to another
viewer. These movies are high in quality but have somewhat smaller file sizes than full-
quality movies.
Web Movie, Small: Movies generally have poorer playback quality but are small
enough to be shared across the web or through email.
Custom: Choose your own QuickTime compression settings for video and audio so
that you can control the tradeoff between file size and quality.

7

To include the slideshow soundtrack or the recorded audio, select the appropriate

Audio checkbox.

8

If your slideshow has a transparent background you want to preserve in your

QuickTime movie, select “Include transparency.”
Some transitions might not work correctly with this option selected.

9

Click Next, type a name for your movie, choose a location in which to store it, and

click Export.

If the slideshow includes a soundtrack, two movie files are created. The file with
“soundtrack” appended contains only the audio and can be discarded.

When you export a self-playing slideshow as a QuickTime movie, note the following:

If the slideshow includes a soundtrack, the movie won’t end until the audio finishes.

Â

If your slideshow is a lot shorter than the audio, you might want to use a shorter
audio file.
If the slideshow contains an Exit Slideshow link, clicking it makes the movie exit full-

Â

screen mode.
